This is another view of the early Wed Axiom Space Ax-4 crewed launch by SpaceX, seen from MLB.
For every launch, numerous resources are deployed to keep the crew safe, and this fully stocked helicopter was on station for crucial (and happily, not needed) support.
Big thanks to Operator Solutions for their excellent work and for allowing me to shoot from the flight line. It sure was a pretty launch (& landing!).
A little bit more of humanity is in space today. 🇺🇸🇮🇳🇵🇱🇭🇺

Standing down from tomorrow’s Falcon 9 launch of Ax-4 to the @Space_Station to allow additional time for SpaceX teams to repair the LOx leak identified during post static fire booster inspections. Once complete – and pending Range availability – we will share a new launch date
Not just parked—positioned.
We are fueled, loaded, and standing ready for Alert in Melbourne. This is what mission-ready looks like.

What if SpaceX had a bad day while launching private astronauts, such as Ax-4? Could the crew inside Dragon be rescued from the ocean? Who would rescue them?
Very cool presentation at the @NSCFL luncheon about @RescueSpace outlining the amazing spaceflight rescue work they do!
The Ax-4 mission from @Axiom_Space with an international crew from the U.S, India, Poland, and Hungary counts down to a launch targeted for 8:22am ET on Tuesday, June 10, from @NASAKennedy aboard the @SpaceX Dragon.
Wheels down in Melbourne.
The C-130 from International Air Response is on the ground and ready to support the Ax-4 launch. Proud to stand behind the mission. 🇺🇸

After Hurricane Helene, it’s all hands-on deck again in the @RescueSpace command center in Melbourne.
OS just created “Task Force Guardian Angel,” with the goal is to respond to natural disasters like hurricanes to save people with highly technical aircraft and boat rescues.
