Did ya know ...  SpaceX is supposed to launch their Falcon 9 rocket with the Dragon capsule at 3:15 Saturday morning, to try to dock with the ISS?

[Philip Dorr]

When will they attempt to dock with ISS? Will it be on NASA TV?

Docking is set for Tuesday (mission day 4) if they prove to NASA that they get the orbital mechanics down right.  It won't be a self-dock.  ISS will capture it with an arm and dock th capsule.  1200# of supplies up - don't know if they'll take trash down or not - twould be stupid not to.

Here's a video of the NASA Social event about this mission. 96 minutes in, they talk about reentry. As far as I'm aware, there aren't any current plans to bring anything back this time.

The NASA TV schedule says there is live coverage of the launch,starting at 2:30.
