Science and Supplies Delivered to the Space Station on This Week @NASA –

This week at NASA, a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft successfully delivered over 6,500 pounds of critical science, hardware, and crew supplies to the International Space Station. The cargo includes experiments to study bacteria, brain aging, and gravity-sensing cells, as well as new hardware and supplies for the crew members.

In addition to the cargo delivery, NASA also celebrated the one-year anniversary of the Artemis I mission, which was the first uncrewed flight test of the Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft. The mission was a success and paves the way for future Artemis missions, which will eventually return humans to the Moon.

Finally, NASA also announced the retirement of Associate Administrator and former astronaut Bob Cabana. Cabana has served NASA for over 38 years and has held a variety of leadership positions, including Director of Kennedy Space Center.
