Tonight’s SpaceX Rocket Launch One Step Closer to Bringing Stranded Astronauts Home

Date:

Anyone catch this contrail earlier this evening ?

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket lifted off at 7:03 p.m. on Friday, March 14, 2025, and with it, hope to bring two overdue astronauts home to earth.

The spacecraft is carrying four astronauts to the International Space Station. Once they arrive, the craft is scheduled to bring home U.S. astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who have been stuck on the ISS for nine months and counting.

The craft is due to arrive at the space station on Saturday night after a journey of approximately 28 hours.
