The shipment arrived Sunday morning via a Dragon, versus a bunny. <\/p>\n
The SpaceX company's cargo ship, Dragon, spent two days chasing the International Space Station following its launch from Cape Canaveral. Astronauts used a robot arm to capture the capsule 260 miles above Egypt. <\/p>\n
More than 2 tons of food, spacewalking gear and experiments fill the Dragon, including mating fruit flies, a little veggie hothouse and legs for the resident robot. NASA also packed family care packages for the six spacemen. <\/p>\n
The capsule delivered vital supplies the space station astronauts needed for their upcoming spacewalk <\/p>\n
