Orbital Sciences Cygnus ISS cargo launch

9 January 2014, 09:49

The Orbital Sciences Antares launcher is scheduled to launch their Cygnus cargo spacecraft to the ISS with a window opening at 1:00 pm EST today. Cygnus is like a smaller version of ATV and like it is disposable, burning up in the atmosphere on the return leg.
