The mission, codenamed Ax-1, was launched on SpaceX`s Falcon 9 rocket from NASA`s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 8, Xinhua news agency reported.

The crew will undock from the ISS at 8:35 p.m. Saturday Eastern Time, for a splashdown off the coast of Florida about 1:46 p.m. Sunday, according to NASA.
Teams will continue to monitor the weather at the splashdown sites prior to undocking to ensure conditions are acceptable for a safe recovery of the Ax-1 astronauts and Dragon spacecraft, said NASA.
