Japan’s eighth robotic resupply mission to the International Space Station arrived at its destination Saturday, delivering six fresh lithium-ion batteries, science experiments, CubeSats and other gear to the research outpost.
This will be the 50th Dragon vehicle to visit the International Space Station, including the Dragon 1 vehicles that were berthed to the orbiting lab. Docking with the Harmony module is anticipated Monday, Aug. 25, at 7:30 a.m. EDT (1130 UTC).
