Expedition 69 Northrop Grumman Cygnus Cargo Craft Secured to Space Station - Aug. 4, 2023 #nasa

Loaded with food, fuel, and supplies, the unpiloted Northrop Grumman Cygnus cargo craft arrived at the International Space Station Aug. 4 where it was installed to the nadir port of the Unity module. Cygnus launched from the agency's Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia on Aug. 1 atop an Antares rocket and will remain docked to the space station for approximately two months on the company's 19th resupply mission to the International Space Station for NASA. Northrop Grumman named the Cygnus spacecraft the S.S. Laurel Clark after late NASA astronaut Laurel Clark. Clark was a crew member of NASA's STS-107 mission aboard space shuttle Columbia, successfully conducting 80 experiments while logging 15 days in space. She and her fellow STS-107 crew members tragically lost their lives when Columbia did not survive its re-entry into Earth's atmosphere.
