Orbital Sciences' Antares rocket carrying the Cygnus cargo spacecraft lifted off at 12:52 p.m. EDT and is on its way to the International Space Station. At the time of launch, the International Space Station was traveling at an altitude of 260 miles over northwest Australia. The Cygnus spacecraft is safely on orbit with solar arrays deployed.
The cargo ship will rendezvous with the International Space Station on Wednesday, July 16. It will be grappled at approximately 6:39 a.m. by Commander Steve Swanson of NASA. He will be assisted in a backup position by Flight Engineer Alexander Gerst of the European Space Agency. Cygnus will be attached to the Earth-facing port of the station's Harmony node and will remain in place for approximately one month. It is scheduled depart the space station on August 15.
