Here’s what’s launching from July 28 to August 3: a cutting‑edge Earth‑observation mission joins a crewed flight to the International Space Station, flanked by eight other commercial and international launches.

SpaceX has rolled out the Falcon 9 rocket mounted with the Dragon spacecraft that will carry NASA 's next crew rotation mission - Crew-11. The mission to the International Space Station (ISS) is targeted for liftoff at 9:39 pm IST on July 31 from NASA's Kennedy Space Center with four astronauts.

The four members of SpaceX's Crew-10 mission on the Expedition 73 crew began packing for home, while also calling down to Earth to share their ongoing work aboard the ISS.

The International Space Station will fly over the eastern United States and parts of Canada just after sunset on Thursday evening, an easy-to-see event for millions of residents across the region.
