"[T]he ‘SS Roger Chaffee’ Cygnus spacecraft successfully completed its rendezvous and berthing maneuvers with the ISS earlier this morning," the release said on Friday. "The mission marks the company’s 11th successful berthing with the orbiting laboratory."
"Once the spacecraft was in close range, crew members on board the space station grappled the spacecraft with the station’s robotic arm at 5:30 a.m. EDT. Cygnus was then guided to its berthing port on… the station’s Unity module and officially installed," the release said.
