SpaceX launched a Dragon cargo mission to the International Space Station Tuesday morning. A Falcon 9 lifted off at 6:33 am EDT (1033 GMT) from Cape Canaveral, Florida, putting the Dragon into orbit on the CRS-35 mission. The Dragon docked with the ISS Thursday morning. It is carrying about 2,870 kilograms of cargo, including the final pair of new solar arrays that will be installed on the ISS on an upcoming spacewalk to augment the station's power supply. Dragon will remain at the ISS for a month before returning to Earth.
