Videos: Previewing SpaceX’s eighth International Space Station resupply launch

Boeing said Monday it has re-qualified software for the company’s Starliner crew capsule after programming errors cut short the spacecraft’s first orbital test flight in 2019, and technicians at the Kennedy Space Center have connected the crew and service modules for the next unpiloted Starliner test flight to the International Space Station in March.

Passing a major pre-flight milestone ahead of a launch and landing planned early Sunday, a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket ignited its main engines Wednesday for a hold-down firing at Cape Canaveral.

Watch the launch of Expedition 49, a three-man crew headed for the International Space Station aboard the Russian Soyuz MS-02 spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
