After three days of delays, Orbital ATK’s resupply mission to the International Space Station is finally underway.
The launch, which was originally scheduled for Thursday, took place at the open of Sunday’s launch window at 4:44 p.m.
Rain and thick clouds forced a scrub of the launch on Thursday, while strong winds were responsible for the scrub on Friday and Saturday.
The Cygnus Spacecraft, attached to a ULA Atlas V, will be bringing supplies to the Space Station along with tools and research equipment.
Cygnus will connect with the ISS at 6:10 a.m. on Wednesday, according to an Orbital ATK release.
