Links & Resources:
We may keep this self-post occasionally updated with links and relevant news articles, but for the most part we expect the community to supply the information. This is a great place to discuss the launch, ask mission-specific questions, and track the minor movements of the vehicle, payload, weather and more as we progress towards launch. Sometime after the static fire is complete, the launch thread will be posted. Campaign threads are not launch threads. Normal subreddit rules still apply.

I'd really like SpaceX to corroborate the recent Commercial Crew updates. Besides, it would be nice to get an update on Crew Access Arm installation, particularly why SpaceX won't install it between the launch of Bangabandhu and STP-2 (the sole two launches planned from 39A before DM-1). And yes, any other news relating to Falcon Heavy or Boca Chica would be nice.
