SpaceX's Dragon cargo craft is seen during final approach to the International Space Station (@ISS). The commercial spacecraft launched on Feb. 19 and carried about 5,500 pounds of experiments and supplies to the orbiting laboratory. Station crew members Thomas Pesquet (@thom_astro) and Shane Kimbrough (@astro_kimbrough) used the station's Canadarm2 robotic arm to capture Dragon, then handed command over to ground controllers to attach Dragon to the station.
