The Orbital ATK Cygnus pressurized cargo module, enclosed in its payload fairing and secured on a KAMAG transporter, departs the Payload Hazardous Servicing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Cygnus will be transported to Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station for mating to the United Launch Alliance (ULA) Atlas V rocket. The Orbital ATK CRS-7 commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station is scheduled to launch atop the Atlas V from pad 41. Cygnus will deliver 7,600 pounds of supplies, equipment and scientific research materials to the space station.
