How to watch the Falcon 9 booster land: After the SpaceX rocket launch, here's how to see the booster land at Cape Canaveral SFS Commanded by former NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson, the Ax-4 mission is a two-week science mission stay. Axiom Space is working with NASA to create a space station, referred to as Axiom Station, which will attach to the current ISS before its planned 2030 decommission. There is currently no set launch date for Axiom Station. The crew is international. Joining Whitson are Shubhanshu Shukla from India, Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski from Poland, and Tibor Kapu from Hungary. These three astronauts will bring a return to spaceflight for their respective countries. In over 40 years, these countries have not had a government sponsored astronaut. SpaceX Starlink rocket launch in Florida later in the day Should the Ax-4 crew lift off on time, it will not the be only rocket launch of the day. SpaceX has yet to confirm, but navigational warnings indicate a Starlink launch occurring between 12:33 p.m. and 5:03 p.m. Wednesday from Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station. While SpaceX usually launches early in the window, factors such as weather play a role in timing.
