SpaceX launches first-ever cargo aircraft into space
- 7 years ago
SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket successfully landed back on Earth after delivering cargo to the International Space Station. The mission marks the first time a commercial spacecraft delivered supplies to space. The initial mission, which was scheduled for June 1, was delayed due to lightning strikes. SpaceX's Falcon 9 took off from NASA's Pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 3.
