NASA said on Tuesday the launch of its Crew-9 mission with SpaceX has been pushed back to Sept. 28 due to Tropical Storm Helene.
SpaceX’s upcoming Crew Dragon mission, a routine flight called Crew-9, is expected to send three NASA astronauts and a Russian cosmonaut to the International Space Station.

The Crew-9 mission was originally stated to be launched no earlier than Aug. 18, but was pushed back a month to spend more time analyzing issues with Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft, which remains docked at the station.
