At 5:15 a.m. EST, NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 mission lifted off from Cape Canaveral, Florida. The launch comes after days of weather delays, not in Florida, but along the flight path over the Atlantic Ocean.

"It turns out Friday the 13th is a very lucky day," SpaceX Launch Control radioed once the astronauts reached orbit.

The NASA SpaceX Crew-6 astronauts NASA's Stephen Bowen and Woody Hoburg, the United Arab Emirates' Sultan Al Neyadi and Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev moved Crew Dragon Endeavour to another International Space Station docking port.
