People across the world held their breath as four brave souls were sent into orbit as part of SpaceX's all-civilian mission called Inspriation4.

St. Jude's says the zero-g indicator was inspired by their specially trained facility dogs, Huckleberry and Puggle.

SpaceX's Inspiration4 mission is targeting a five-hour launch window on Wednesday, September 15, opening at 8:02 p.m. EDT from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

SpaceX launched Inspiration4, the world’s first all-civilian mission, into orbit on Wednesday. A Dragon Crew capsule will carry its four passengers across a low earth orbit with a return to Earth planned for Saturday. The crew will partake in a first-of-its-kind health research initiative to increase humanity’s knowledge on the impact of spaceflight on the human body.

SpaceX's first private flight has blasted off with two contest winners, a health care worker, and their billionaire sponsor on Wednesday.

Seres has been coming to launches at the Space Coast since 1983 when he was living in Chicago. Now that he lives in Jacksonville, he doesn’t miss any. 

History will be made on Wednesday as the world's first all-civilian crew is getting ready to launch into orbit.

Liftoff is set for 8:02 p.m. on Wednesday, September 15th from Launch Complex 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

SpaceX's Inspiration4 mission will be the world’s first all-civilian spaceflight. The Inspiration4 payload will include a variety of iconic and culturally significant items donated to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital that are being auctioned to benefit the hospital.

Just one day before the Inspiration4 team prepares to make history, the crew of four held a briefing and talked about launch day activities, and took questions from the public.

The crew and rocket are ready to go and so are people flocking to the Space Coast to get a glimpse of the history-making launch. They are hoping for a clear, gorgeous, successful launch so they can witness history up-close.

The civilians will ride alone in a fully automated Dragon capsule, the same kind that SpaceX uses to send astronauts to and from the space station.

For the first time in 60 years of human spaceflight, a rocket is poised to blast into orbit with no professional astronauts on board, only four tourists.

This week, four ordinary people are preparing for an extraordinary adventure: a three-day mission in space.

Inspiration4 will launch on Wednesday, September 15th from Launch Complex 39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the space company said.
