SpaceX targets Nov. 8 launch for Falcon 9 and Dragon, Ken Kremer (with photos)
“SpaceX Corporation is retargeting the liftoff of the firm’s next Falcon 9 rocket to early November. The launch includes the debut test flight of the first operational Dragon spacecraft built by SpaceX. Blast off would now take place about a week after the final scheduled flight of Space Shuttle Discovery – currently slated for Nov.1 – instead of a few days ahead that launch.”
