Veteran NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams flew Boeing's Starliner capsule to the ISS last year when problems with the vessel's propulsion forced an extension of their planned eight-day stay.
NASA at the time deemed it too risky for the duo to fly home on the craft, which returned to Earth empty in September.
SpaceX's Falcon 9 Crew-10 rocket took off at 7:03pm local time on Friday from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The rocket's Dragon spacecraft is expected to dock with the ISS at about 12:07am US Eastern Time (2:07pm AEST) on Sunday.
