Josh Finch of NASA Communications moderates a briefing at the agency's Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Jan. 17, 2020, prior to launch of SpaceX’s uncrewed In-Flight Abort Test. A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket topped by the company’s Crew Dragon spacecraft will lift off from Kennedy’s Launch Complex 39A, then begin the launch-abort sequence. The spacecraft will demonstrate its escape capabilities in preparation for crewed flights to the International Space Station as part of the agency’s Commercial Crew Program.

In Kennedy Space Center's Press Site auditorium, members of the media participate in a mission briefing on NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). Josh Finch, NASA Communications, moderates the briefing. TESS is the next step in the search for planets outside of our solar system. The mission will find exoplanets that periodically block part of the light from their host stars, events called transits. The satellite will survey the nearest and brightest stars for two years to search for transiting exoplanets. TESS will launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station no earlier than 6:32 p.m. EDT on Monday, April 16.

In the Kennedy Space Center’s Press Site auditorium, agency and industry leaders speak to members of the media during a prelaunch news conference for the SpaceX CRS-12 commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station. From left are: Josh Finch of NASA Communications; Dan Hartman, NASA deputy manager of the International Space Station Program, Hans Koenigsmann, vice president of Build and Flight Reliability for SpaceX, and Pete Hasbrook, associate program scientist for the International Space Station Program. A Dragon spacecraft is scheduled to be launched from Kennedy’s Launch Complex 39A on Aug. 14 atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on the company's 12th Commercial Resupply Services mission to the space station.

Josh Finch with NASA Communications moderates a news briefing inside the Press Site auditorium at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on May 22, 2020, following the conclusion of the flight readiness review for NASA’s SpaceX Demo-2 mission, with NASA astronauts Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley, to the International Space Station. This will be SpaceX’s final flight test for NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. Behnken and Hurley will fly to the orbiting laboratory in a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft, launching atop a Falcon 9 rocket from Kennedy’s Launch Complex 39A. Liftoff is scheduled for 4:33 p.m. EDT on Wednesday, May 27.

In Kennedy Space Center’s Press Site auditorium, agency and industry leaders speak to members of the media on Friday, Feb. 22, during the post-flight readiness review briefing for the SpaceX Demo-1 Commercial Crew Program (CCP) mission to the International Space Station. From left are: Josh Finch of NASA Communications; William Gerstenmaier, associate administrator, NASA Human Exploration and Operations; and Kathy Lueders, manager, NASA Commercial Crew Program. The inaugural uncrewed flight of the SpaceX Crew Dragon, known as Demo-1, is targeted to lift off from Kennedy’s Launch Complex 39A on Saturday, March 2. EST. A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket will launch the Crew Dragon on a mission designed to validate end-to-end systems and capabilities, leading to certification to fly crew.
