A Cygnus cargo spacecraft is en route to the International Space Station after a launch Saturday. A Northrop Grumman Antares rocket lifted off from Wallops Island, Virginia, at 3:21 pm EST (2021 GMT) and placed the NG-13 Cygnus spacecraft into orbit. The spacecraft, carrying more than 3,300 kilograms of cargo, arrived at the station early Tuesday. The launch was postponed by nearly a week because of technical issues and strong upper-level winds.
