The US SpaceX’s Dragon resupply spacecraft was launched on Sunday and is heading for the International Space Station, according to a live broadcast on the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) website.

Axar.az reports that the spacecraft was launch on a Falcon 9 carrier rocket at 11:17 a.m. EST on Sunday from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This is SpaceX’s 21st cargo mission to the ISS. This time, an upgraded Dragon capable of taking 20% more payload is being used. It will deliver science investigations, a new airlock, food supplies, and other cargo.

The Dragon is scheduled to dock to the ISS at 13:30 a.m. EST (21:30 Moscow time) on December 7. It will stay docked for about a month to return to Earth with results of scientific research and other cargo.
