CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. \u2013 Early risers on Florida\u2019s Space Coast will have something worth setting an alarm for Tuesday, as SpaceX prepares to launch its Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Dragon CRS-35 spacecraft to the International Space Station.<\/p>\n

Liftoff is set for 6:33 a.m. from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.<\/p>\n

A backup launch opportunity is available Wednesday at 6:08 a.m. if needed. <\/p>\n

Residents in Central Florida should also expect to hear sonic booms<\/a> as the Falcon 9\u2019s first stage booster returns for landing. Following stage separation, the booster will attempt its eighth landing at Landing Zone 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.<\/p>\n

The Dragon spacecraft has flown three previous resupply missions \u2014 CRS-26, CRS-29 and CRS-33. After an approximately 52-hour flight, Dragon is expected to autonomously dock with the station Thursday at approximately 11 a.m. <\/p>\n
