Nasa astronauts Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken have completed their dress 
rehearsal for Wednesday's flight to the International Space Station.

The mission, the first crewed outing from American soil in nine years, 
will see the pair ride to orbit in a SpaceX Falcon rocket and Crew 
Dragon capsule.

It's a demonstration of the new "taxi" service the US space agency will 
be buying from the Californian firm.

Lift-off on Wednesday is timed for 16:33 EDT (20:33 GMT / 21:33 BST).
