Cygnus departs from ISS
Posted: Sun, Mar 30, 2025, 9:14 AM ET (1314 GMT)
A Cygnus cargo spacecraft departed from the station Friday morning. The station's Canadarm2 robotic arm unberthed the Cygnus and released it at about 6:55 am EDT (1055 GMT). The Cygnus, which had been at the ISS since last August on the NG-21 mission, is carrying trash that will be burned up in the atmosphere when the spacecraft reenters on Sunday. The departure came days after NASA and Northrop said they would not launch the NG-22 Cygnus in June as previously planned because of damage to the spacecraft's cargo module during shipping.
