Will SpaceX launch NASA's CRS-35 cargo mission to the space station before Aug 21?

SpaceX had not launched NASA's CRS-35 cargo mission to the International Space Station before August 21, 2026. NASA's mission listing targeted the flight for no earlier than late August 2026, with tracking sources projecting a launch around August 31 from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station aboard a Falcon 9 carrying a Cargo Dragon spacecraft loaded with science experiments and station supplies. The mission is the 35th flight under SpaceX's Commercial Resupply Services contract with NASA. It followed CRS-34, which launched May 15, 2026, after weather-related delays and docked at the station's Harmony module two days later; no cargo mission flew between CRS-34 and the question's resolution date. Launch dates for ISS resupply missions are routinely adjusted based on station traffic, weather and payload readiness, and CRS-35's schedule slipped into the final days of August, past the question's cutoff. The community voted 100 percent yes on two votes, anticipating a launch before August 21, but the mission had not flown by that date, another case where a small sample of community votes diverged from the actual outcome.
