Inspiration4
A few hours ago, four L-39 and two Alpha jets carrying the Inspiration4 astronauts and their support crew touched down at Space Florida's Launch and Landing Facility—formerly known as the Shuttle Landing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center (KSC).
Commander Jared Isaacman, pilot Sian Proctor, chief medical officer Hayley Arceneaux and mission specialist Christopher Sembroski will spend the next six days conducting final preps for their flight...which is currently scheduled to lift off from KSC's Launch Complex 39A on September 15, at 8:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time (5:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time).
SpaceX and Inspiration4 planners will reduce the launch window to five hours approximately three days before Crew Dragon Resilience embarks on the three-day mission aboard a Falcon 9 rocket.
We have arrived at @NASAKennedy .. it was a great morning of flying with my @inspiration4x crew. Right side is in! Standard. Expect more flights around KSC as we get closer to the big launchπ pic.twitter.com/Kcl2moCNvM

The @inspiration4x team flew to Florida today in four L-39’s and two Alpha jets. I got to practice my aerial photography. We are all excited for this week @NASAKennedy with @SpaceX.
