The strongback and crew access arm pull back as Falcon 9 leaves LC-39A. • 📸 John Rachek PR Manager The Avion @johnrachek.jpeg • #spacex #falcon9 #lc39a #inspiration4

Propellant load of Falcon 9 ahead of liftoff Wednesday night. • The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket uses liquid oxygen and RP-1 for oxidizer and propellant respectively. In order to achieve maximum performance, the oxygen is cooled to cryogenic temperatures and becomes a liquid. Seen here is the oxygen boiling off during propellant load and the rocket venting to maintain the appropriate level of pressure in its tanks. • 🎥 John Rachek PR Manager The Avion @johnrachek.jpeg • #spacex #falcon9 #inspiration4
