Watch live: SpaceX to launch 4 astronauts on an ambitious NASA mission - Business Insider

The crew consists of NASA astronauts Mike Hopkins, Victor Glover, and Shannon Walker, as well as Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Soichi Noguchi. Their Crew Dragon space capsule will launch from the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida.

Because of the relative positions of the spaceship and space station, the one-day delay means that the astronauts' journey will now take 27 hours instead of eight-and-a-half. Once they dock to the ISS, the team is expected to stay there for six months. If they succeed, their mission will mark the longest human spaceflight ever launched from US soil.

"We are ready for this launch. We are ready for the six months of work that is waiting for us on board the International Space Station, and we are ready for the return," NASA astronaut Mike Hopkins, who will command the mission, told reporters in a call on Monday.

Once the rocket's first-stage booster has burned most of its fuel, it will fall away and land on a drone ship. The rocket's second stage will continue on, helping propel the ship toward orbit and the ISS.
