A little while ago, SpaceX’s Dragon 2 spacecraft docked with the International Space Station’s Harmony module, completing the first part of its CRS-35 mission. Astronaut Anil Menon and his colleague Joshua Kutryk monitored the operation, but the cargo spacecraft, which blasted off almost exactly two days earlier, completed the maneuvers automatically without any problem. The Dragon spacecraft arrived about half an hour earlier than the time scheduled originally.

A little while ago, the SpaceX Dragon 2 spacecraft blasted off atop a Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral in its CRS-35 (Cargo Resupply Service 35) mission, also referred to as SPX-35. After almost 12 minutes, it separated successfully from the rocket’s last stage and went en route. This is the 35th mission for the Dragon/Dragon 2 spacecraft to resupply the International Space Station with various cargoes and then return to Earth, again with various cargoes.
