SpaceX is counting down this morning to a launch of its Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule, which could fly within an hour.
The launch window opens at 9 a.m., but liftoff is targeted for 9:03 a.m.
The window extends to 12:22 p.m.
The weather forecast is 80 percent "go."
The mission is the first of several demonstration flights under NASA's Commercial Orbital Transportation Services program, which is testing new commercial vehicles before they start delivering cargo to the International Space Station.
