The Northrop Grumman Antares rocket, with Cygnus resupply spacecraft onboard, launches from Pad-0A of NASA's Wallops Flight Facility, Saturday, November 2, 2019, in Virginia. This is Northrop Grumman’s 12th contracted cargo resupply mission to the International Space Station, and is delivering about 8,200 pounds of science and research, crew supplies and vehicle hardware to the orbital laboratory and its crew. ⁣ ⁣ Northrop Grumman also manufactures the five-segment solid rocket boosters for NASA’s Space Launch System (#SLS). These are the largest solid rocket motors ever built and are rated for human flight. ⁣ ⁣ Ad astra friends! ✨ ⁣ ⁣ Image Credit: NASA/Bill Ingalls⁣ ⁣ #nasa #space #spacestation #iss #cargo #antares #rocket #launch #cygnus nasawallops
