A SpaceX Dragon cargo capsule carrying more than 3 tons of supplies arrived at the International Space Station (ISS) on Thursday morning (March 16).
The robotic Dragon, which launched from Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on Tuesday evening (March 14), reached the ISS Thursday at 7:31 a.m. EDT (1131 GMT), about 20 minutes ahead of schedule after a smooth and uneventful ride.
The current mission is called CRS-27, because it's the 27th robotic cargo flight to the International Space Station that SpaceX is conducting for NASA. ("CRS" stands for "commercial resupply services.")
