2:16:01Now PlayingThis is one to see!!! I'm LIVE at NASA's Kennedy Space Center's Press Site just 5km (3 miles) from SpaceX testing the abort system of their Crew Dragon Capsule IN-FLIGHT!!!
This means the crew capsule will eject from the Falcon 9 rocket booster right at the point when it's experiencing the highest aerodynamic forces and land safely under parachutes, which will likely destroy the booster!
Want more info? I've got you covered! Check out our PrelaunchPreview of this launch!
How's this abort system work and why do they use liquid fueled engines?
Why are there fins on the trunk of the Dragon Capsule and why does the trunk stay attached during the abort?
Here's the launch profile for this mission
