Photos: Atlas 5 rocket aims for International Space Station

The launch for the second Falcon Heavy rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida has slipped until Wednesday at the earliest. The powerful rocket is due to carry the Arabsat 6A communications satellite into orbit.

The International Space Station crew reaches out with the Canadian robotic arm and grabs the Cygnus OA-6 commercial cargo ship filled with 7,485 pounds of supplies, food and science gear.

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket will go from Cape Canaveral to low Earth orbit in 10 minutes Friday with a Dragon capsule heading for the International Space Station carrying nearly 7,000 pounds of supplies and experiments.
