Description
This image shows the first demonstration flight of Cygnus as it approached the orbital outpost in September 2013. ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano and NASA astronaut Karen Nyberg caught and berthed the spacecraft with the International Space Station's robotic arm, Canadarm2. Cygnus was the second commercial spacecraft to bring supplies to the International Space Station. Developed by US company Orbital Science, the spacecraft uses a European-built pressurised module that has a long history of use in human spaceflight.
