The space station crew got next-day delivery of cargo over the weekend. A Falcon 9 lifted off at 2:20 pm EST (1910 GMT) Nov. 26 from the Kennedy Space Center and placed a cargo Dragon spacecraft into orbit. The spacecraft, flying the CRS-26 mission for NASA, docked with the ISS at 7:39 am EST (1239 GMT) Nov. 27. The spacecraft delivered more than 3,500 kilograms of cargo, including supplies and experiments, as well as two solar arrays that will be installed on the station during spacewalks in December. The Dragon will remain at the station for a month and a half before returning to Earth.
