SpaceX’s Dragon cargo spacecraft lifts off atop the company’s Falcon 9 rocket from Kennedy Space Center’s Launch Complex 39A in Florida. Commercial resupply by U.S. companies significantly increases NASA’s ability to conduct more investigations aboard the orbiting laboratory. These investigations lead to new technologies, medical treatments, and products that improve life on Earth. Other U.S. government agencies, private industry, and academic and research institutions can also conduct microgravity research through the agency’s partnership with the International Space Station National Laboratory.
