A SpaceX cargo spacecraft is scheduled to dock with the International Space Station this morning after a two-day orbital chase. The mission, designated CRS-35, marks NASA's 35th commercial resupply flight handled by SpaceX. The Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Dragon capsule lifted off on Oct. 13 at 6:35 a.m. EDT from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
The rocket's upper stage deployed the capsule into low Earth orbit ten minutes later. The early-morning launch created a visible "space jellyfish" exhaust plume that was seen by observers along the U.S. East Coast. The capsule is carrying fresh food, long-term provisions, hardware, and scientific research. These supplies are intended to support the four-person Crew-13 mission, who arrived at the station on Oct.
1 to relieve the departing Crew-12 astronauts. Following a 51-hour pursuit, the spacecraft is scheduled to autonomously dock at the zenith port of the station's Harmony module around 11 a.m. EDT. The capsule will remain docked for approximately one month before returning to Earth with research samples and waste.
