Dragon reached the International Space Station and docked autonomously at the forward port of the Harmony module, completing the arrival phase of NASA’s CRS-34 cargo mission.
Nearly 6,500 pounds of supplies and science equipment were delivered to the orbiting laboratory, where NASA and ESA astronauts monitored the capsule’s approach and capture sequence.
The spacecraft launched at 6:05 p.m. on May 15 aboard a Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
The cargo includes research tied to bone scaffold studies, charged particles and planetary formation, underscoring the station’s role as a microgravity science platform.
