May 27: NASA’s live broadcast on NASA TV will begin at 12:15 p.m. EDT (9:15 a.m. PDT) with liftoff scheduled for 4:33 p.m. EDT (1:33 p.m. PDT).

Weather could ground the mission, however, with about a 40% chance of inclement conditions. If that happens, NASA has set backup launch days of May 30 or May 31.

hate to be that guy but what's the point of showing off technical prowess when almost all government resources should be prioritized to address the worst health crisis in a century

im all for space flights but should be delayed until next year

Because space-x and nasa employ LOTS of people ( and 17,000+ 6000+) and a goal is to not let areas get destroyed by loss if jobs. Just a guess
