NASA and SpaceX have rescheduled the Crew-10 mission launch to no earlier than 7:03 p.m. EDT on Friday, March 14 (4:33 a.m. IST, Saturday, March 15). The delay, initially set for March 13, is due to high winds and precipitation expected along Dragon’s flight path. Additionally, engineers are addressing a hydraulic issue with a ground support clamp arm at Launch Complex 39A, Kennedy Space Center. The Crew-10 team—NASA’s Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, JAXA’s Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos’ Kirill Peskov—remains in Astronaut Crew Quarters while awaiting the revised launch schedule. NASA aims to ensure optimal safety before liftoff.
