SpaceX launches cargo to station on last first-gen Dragon capsule [i]The final flight of a SpaceX first-generation Dragon capsule is now underway, crowning a decade of launches that began with the world's first orbital mission by a commercial spacecraft. Poised atop a Falcon 9 rocket, the gumdrop-shaped Dragon lifted off on Friday (March 6) at 11:50 p.m. EST (0450 GMT March 7) from Complex 40 at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. The launch marked the start of SpaceX's 20th NASA-contracted mission to resupply the International Space Station (ISS) and its 22nd flight of a Dragon (1) since the first of two demo missions in 2010.[/i]
