The mission from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida aimed to transport four new crew members to the International Space Station (ISS) and enable NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore to return to Earth. The pair has been in space since June but has been unable to return on a Boeing spacecraft after safety concerns arose. With the SpaceX mission's successful arrival at the ISS, Williams and Wilmore would have been able to return home shortly thereafter.

The launch has been rescheduled for Thursday, with hopes that the technical issues will be resolved by then. Updates on the situation will continue to be provided as more information becomes available.
