Watch NASA’s SpaceX CRS-26 Launch to the Space Station (Official NASA Broadcast - Nov. 22 Attempt)

SpaceX’s CRS-26 cargo mission is set to lift off at 3:54 p.m. EST (2054 UTC) Tuesday, Nov. 22 from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Dragon spacecraft will deliver a variety of NASA investigations, including the next pair of International Space Station Roll Out Solar Arrays (iROSAs), which will augment power to the orbiting laboratory.

The spacecraft also will carry a study to grow dwarf tomatoes to help create a continuous fresh-food production system in space, as well as an experiment that tests an on-demand method to create specific quantities of key nutrients.
