Mission teams continue to monitor the impacts of Hurricane Ian on the Space Coast and NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Depending on the conditions, it may be necessary to adjust the launch date again. As of 6 p.m. Wednesday, September 28, Kennedy Space Center declared “HURCON I” status with the ride-out team sheltered in place at their designated locations until the storm passes.
In the coming days, more updates on the planning schedule, including crew arrival from the agency’s Johnson Space Center to Kennedy, will be provided, depending on weather and center status. As always, the safety of the crew, ground teams, and hardware remain of the utmost importance to NASA and SpaceX.
