New Delhi: NASA is geared up to launch two of its astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS) on May 27 from Launch Complex 39A in Florida.

The international space agency’s mission in collaboration with its commercial partner SpaceX, dubbed ‘Launch America’, is scheduled for 4.33 p.m. EDT on Wednesday.

A SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft will fly the astronauts to the ISS on the company’s Falcon 9 rocket.

This Crew Demo-2 mission is historic considering the fact that it will mark the first launch of astronauts on an American rocket from American soil since the last space shuttle mission in 2011.

"SpaceX and @NASA completed a full rehearsal of launch day activities with @AstroBehnken and @Astro_Doug ahead of Crew Demo-2," SpaceX said in a tweet.
