SpaceX makes delivery to ISS | Perth Now

SpaceX has made good on a delivery at the International Space Station despite being a day late.

Astronauts captured SpaceX’s Dragon cargo ship on Thursday, a day after a GPS problem prevented the capsule from coming too close. The navigation error was quickly fixed, and everything went smoothly the second time around.

The Dragon – loaded with 2494kg of supplies – rocketed away on Sunday from NASA’s historic moon pad in Florida. The pad had been idle for nearly six years.
