KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. — Four astronauts are about to embark on history as part of the first NASA Commercial Crew Program rotation to the International Space Station.

Earlier this year, SpaceX successfully delivered two astronauts to the ISS as part of a test flight, a dress rehearsal for today.
The quartet — three Americans and a Japanese astronaut — will be aboard a Crew Dragon capsule, which will be atop of a Falcon 9 rocket. The rocket is scheduled to lift off from Launch Pad 39A at Kennedy Space Center — the same pad from where space shuttles once launched a decade ago.
