The four astronauts will have to wait at least one day on Wednesday night at the International Space Station.
Otherwise, the daily rotation of crew members at the space station is being paid special attention as it will allow two NASA astronauts, Suni Williams and Butch Willmore, who had planned the space station for a short time last June, to return to Earth.
Scrubs for flights that occur within 45 minutes of the scheduled lift-off also means that staying in Wilmore and Williams' orbit will also be extended for at least one day. During the countdown, SpaceX encountered a hydraulic issue with the clamp arm holding the Falcon 9 rocket prior to its launch.
If you can fix the issue quickly, SpaceX can try again on Thursday. There will be another launch opportunity on Friday.
Other information about the mission is other information about the mission, as it is the 10th mission between the SpaceX Ferry crew and the space station.
Who will give out space on Crew-10?
NASA's Anne McLain is the commander of Crew 10, and NASA's Nicole Ayers is the pilot. The other two crew members are Onishya of Jakusa, the Japanese space agency, and Kiril Peskov of Roscosmos, the Russian space agency.
This will be Ayers and Pescov's first space flight and McClain and Onisi's second space flight.
Will Suni Williams and Butch Willmore be rescued after being stuck in orbit?
A kind of thing.
not much.
The spacecraft that revives Suni Williams and Butch Willmore would have been docked to the space station from late September, and could have returned to Earth at any time.
Williams and Wilmore launched on the space station for a test flight of Starliner, an astronaut capsule built under Boeing's NASA contract last June. Due to propulsion issues, NASA officials decided that Williams and Wilmore would not return to Starliner's Earth. In early September, the spacecraft, which had not been blocked from the space station, reentered the atmosphere and landed in New Mexico without any problems.
When the airline scrambled to re-book passengers after the flight was cancelled, NASA had to find a seat to return to Williams and Willmore's home.
The next space flight was Crew 9. This was lifted a few weeks after Starliner left the space station without anyone on board. Two astronauts assigned to the flight clashed, leaving two seats in the SpaceX Crew Dragon Capsule for Mr Williams and Mr Willmore on their way home.
So, the crew-9 capsule may have brought back two astronauts at any time after that, but it would have understaffed the space station and affected scientific experiments, operations and maintenance.
NASA and SpaceX may have rushed to Crew 10 missions to launch earlier, but NASA officials have decided that it would be best for Williams and Wilmore to join the space station crew and maintain the planned schedule for Crew 10.
When will Williams and Willmore return to Earth?
Once Crew 10 arrives at the space station, preparations for Crew 9 begin.
The crew astronauts and crew-10 overlap on the space station for several days. Approximately four days after Crew 10 was released, Williams and Wilmore will be on the spaceship with two astronauts, Alexander Golbunov, who arrives with Natha's Nick Hague and the crew.
If there are bad weather at a splashdown site off the coast of Florida, their stay could be extended again.
What did the astronauts say about their long-term stay?
In an interview last month, “The Daily” host Michael Barbaro asked the astronauts.
“That's a great question,” Wilmore said. “I think it's a job. It's a great fun. It was fun. I definitely tried it. But are you stuck? No, do you stack it? No. Did you abandon it? No.”
This is the third space trip for both Williams, 59, and Willmore, 62, and they know that it could be the last. “We're heading home,” Williams said. “And it makes you really want to enjoy every part of your time you have here.”
