Keep watching after liftoff
A cargo launch has two moments worth following: departure from Earth and arrival at the International Space Station. CRS-35 gives you a reason to come back for the second one.
Schedule snapshot — . NASA’s dated coverage advisory lists a launch target of from Cape Canaveral and docking planned for . These targets can change. Check the current mission pages and official sources before watching; broadcast start times are different from launch and docking times.
The spacecraft carries science, supplies and equipment. NASA’s mission overview describes research into manufacturing artificial retinas in microgravity. The coverage advisory also lists the final set of the station’s roll-out solar arrays. Reaching orbit is one stage of getting this cargo to the crew.
Two moments to follow
Launch: check the latest target and status before making plans. A countdown reaching zero is not confirmation of a successful flight. Use the mission’s source links for the operator’s latest update.
Docking: return for Dragon’s arrival at the station. A successful launch and a completed docking are separate milestones. Wait for an official update before treating either as complete.
