Mission Spacecraft

Dragon C110

Dragon C110 (C110) was the spacecraft used for this mission. It is a SpaceX Capsule designed for ISS Logistics and traveled to International Space Station.

This capsule was used on both CRS-8 and CRS-14.
On CRS-8 this vehicle delivered the Bigelow BEAM module in its unpressurized cargo trunk. It was also used to carry Scott Kellys biological samples back to Earth. The Dragon spacecraft consists of a nose-cone cap, a conventional blunt-cone ballistic capsule, and an unpressurized cargo-carrier trunk equipped with two solar arrays. Dragon was launched into orbit by the company's Falcon 9 launch vehicle to resupply the International Space Station (ISS). One week free flight, up to two years while berthed to the International Space Station.
