A Northrop Grumman Antares 230 rocket launched the CRS-18 Cygnus spacecraft, dubbed “S.S. Sally Ride”, from MARS Pad 0A, at NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility, Wallops Island, Virginia, on 7 November 2022, at 10:32 UTC (05:32 EDT). For NASA’s Commercial Resupply Services-2 (CRS-2) NG-18 mission, Cygnus delivers approximately 3,729 kg (8,200 lb.) of research, crew supplies, and hardware to the International Space Station and is scheduled to arrive on 9 November 2022, around 10:05 UTC (05:05 EDT). The NG-18 Cygnus Cargo Delivery Spacecraft is named in honor of the late NASA astronaut Sally Ride. In 1983 she became the first American woman to fly in space for STS-7, the Space Shuttle Challenger’s second mission. Credit: Northrop Grumman/NASA #Antares #Cygnus
