Atop the rocket is a crew capsule with three test dummies that will fly around the moon and back over the course of six weeks -- NASA’s first such attempt since the Apollo program 50 years ago.

NASA wants to wring out the spacecraft before strapping in astronauts on the next planned flight in two years. Astronauts last walked on the moon in 1972.

An estimated 400,000 people are expected to travel to the Space Coast to watch the launch.
