The space freighter was launched on Friday from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, atop the private SpaceX company's own Falcon 9 rocket.

It was eighth California-based aerospace manufacturer's cargo mission to the ISS and the first flight of Dragon to the space station since last June, when the Falcon 9 rocket exploded three minutes after it had been launched.
