Weather not favoring the conditions required for a liftoff, the launch was scrubbed yesterday. altho a very good wet run for both teams and astronauts. during which both the crew dragon capsule and the falcon 9 rocket had no problems. New launch opportunity is on may 30th at 3:22 p.m. ET. Best of luck and happy watching.
