SpaceX’s Dragon crew capsule all set for mission Demo-2 on Wednesday

SpaceX will officially launch two astronauts to the International Space Station. However, the mission can be delayed due to some bad weather. The mission, called Demo-2, will be the first crewed test flight of SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft, following a successful uncrewed test flight, Demo-1, in March 2019. It will be the first astronaut launch from Florida since Atlantis closed out the space shuttle program in 2011, and the first American-made capsule to carry people into orbit since the Apollo-Soyuz mission in 1975.
