The SpaceX / NASA mission to send two astronauts to the International Space Station is scheduled to lift off at 3:22pm ET. But there have already been weather delays and the likelihood of them staying on schedule is only about 50%. www.ksl.com/article/46758881/2-astronauts-climb-aboard-spacex-rocket-for-historic-flightThe Discovery Channel will have live television coverage. Not sure if other channels will also cover this.
retr Ea DIT:Below is a live feed from NASA. You can see activities of the mission as they occur, here:

The Dragon has successfully docked with the International Space Station. I've updated the OP of this thread with a Youtube live feed from NASA.

Congrats to SpaceX, NASA, and crew!
Out of all the things SpaceX has done, what's really impressed me is the landing of their booster rockets. The science and engineering behind that is just amazing.

I watched it live on CBS. As great as it was to see American astronauts lifting off on an American rocket from American soil, the whole affair felt anticlimactic. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but it felt like any other ol’ rocket launch, but with even less build-up. Don’t get me wrong, I still gave it Cronkite’s, “Go baby, go,” but the passion wasn’t there. Watching the first flight of the Falcon Heavy some months ago had me more excited. Maybe it was just a presentation issue.
I did amuse myself by looking for all the things the conspiracy theorists will say was wrong with it as proof of a hoax. Come on, we all know they’ll come out of the woodwork eventually.

Do they say why they're going? I'm assuming to collect data
