T-minus 39 minutes. Today's launch is timed for precisely 12:29:24 p.m. EST (1729:24 GMT), roughly the moment Earth's rotation brings pad 40 at Cape Canaveral under the International Space Station's ground track.

The precise timing is necessary to allow the Dragon capsule to rendezvous with the station Sunday. The space station's robotic arm is scheduled to grapple the approaching cargo craft around 6 a.m. EST (1100 GMT) Sunday.

T-minus 35 minutes and counting. "Launch auto sequence has started."

The beginning of the launch autosequence kicks off the first steps to begin pumping propellants into the 213-foot-tall Falcon 9 at pad 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.

RP-1 kerosene and liquid oxygen are now being pumped into the Falcon 9 rocket. The liquid oxygen is chilled to near minus 340 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 206 degrees Celsius).
