Сегодня от нас улетел #Dragon миссии CRS-14. Кстати говоря, этот корабль второй раз посещает станцию, в первый раз он использовался в рамках миссии CRS-8 в 2016 году.

Today the @SpaceX #Dragon CRS-14 cargo ship undocked from the @Space_Station . By the way, it was the second mission to successfully reuse a Dragon capsule, previously flown on CRS-8 in 2016.

На этих фото #Dragon миссии CRS-14 уже отстыковался и готовится к выдаче тормозного импульса, его путь до Земли займет почти 5,5 часов. На его борту — примерно 2 тонны образцов научных экспериментов и исследований, которые были выполнены на борту Международной космической станции

SpaceX confirms the completion of Dragon's deorbit burn, and the spacecraft has jettisoned its disposable unpressurized trunk segment. The capsule will dip into the atmosphere on a trajectory flying from northwest to southeast over the Pacific Ocean, heading for splashdown at 3 p.m. EDT (12 p.m. PDT; 1900 GMT).

An automated SpaceX supply ship parachuted into the Pacific Ocean on Saturday, bringing more than 3,800 pounds of cargo — including a NASA robot requiring repair — back to Earth after a month-long mission at the International Space Station.

The Dragon cargo capsule splashed down at about 3 p.m. EDT (12 p.m. PDT; 1900 GMT) in the Pacific around 400 miles (650 kilometers) southwest of Long Beach, California, where a SpaceX recovery team was in position to retrieve the spacecraft, pull it onto a boat, and return it to the Port of Los Angeles.

The successful splashdown Saturday marked the conclusion of SpaceX's 14th resupply mission to the space station under the space transport company's more than $3 billion, 20-launch cargo contract with NASA. It was the third round-trip cargo flight with a reused Dragon capsule.

The SpaceX recovery crew planned to return the spacecraft to port by early Monday, hand over time-critical experiment specimens to NASA and other research groups, then transport the Dragon to a facility in McGregor, Texas, for servicing and refurbishment for a possible future mission, according to NASA spokesperson Rob Navias, who provided commentary during the ship's departure fr om the space station early Saturday.

The Canadian-built robotic arm on the space station released Dragon at 9:23 a.m. EDT (1323 GMT) Saturday, and the commercial cargo carrier fired its thrusters to fly a safe distance from the orbiting complex.

Draco rocket jets on the supply ship fired at 2:06 p.m. EDT (1806 GMT) for a deorbit burn, and the Dragon's disposable trunk segment detached to burn up during re-entry in Earth's atmosphere.

The pressurized component of the Dragon spacecraft, packed with 3,843 pounds (1,743 kilograms) of equipment and research samples, was protected by a heat shield and deployed parachutes to slow its descent.

Hitching a ride back home with the Dragon was NASA's Robonaut 2, a humanoid robot launched on the final flight of the space shuttle Discovery in February 2011.

"Robonaut has had some issues with being able to power up on-orbit ... and after a lot of troubleshooting on-orbit and a lot of analysis on the ground, they've concluded pretty conclusively that there's a short of some sort on one of the circuitboards, and they need to bring it home in order to repair that," said Pete Hasbrook, NASA's associate space station program scientist, before the Dragon mission's launch.

Engineers developed Robotnaut as a testbed to see whether robots could help astronauts clean and maintain the space station, an objective aimed at freeing up crew time for more intensive tasks. A SpaceX Dragon cargo capsule delivered legs for Robonaut in 2014.

Robonaut could be re-launched on a future mission after the repairs are finished.

"The plan is to bring this one down, understand why it failed, and then make the decision of wh ere we want to go in the future," said Joel Montalbano, NASA's deputy space station program manager.

Mice rode back to Earth on Saturday inside special habitats aboard Dragon, and freezers carried biological samples collected on the station for analysis by scientists on the ground.

The spacecraft's expendable external cargo bay was loaded with a failed pump flow control subassembly, which regulated the flow of ammonia coolant through the space station's thermal control system. The pump was tagged for disposal inside the Dragon trunk.

SpaceX launched the Dragon capsule from Cape Canaveral on April 2, and it reached the space station two days later, delivering 5,836 pounds (2,647 kilograms) of cargo and experiments.

Dragon's departure was scheduled for Wednesday, but high sea states in the splashdown zone prompted SpaceX and NASA officials to keep the spacecraft at the space station until Saturday, when a backup landing opportunity was available.

Saturday's return of the SpaceX supply ship cleared the space station's Harmony berthing port for the arrival of an Orbital ATK Cygnus cargo craft later this month. The Cygnus resupply mission is scheduled for launch May 20 aboard an Antares booster from Wallops Island, Virginia.

Two groups of 20 mice live aboard the ISS in the rodent habitat for durations of one and two months. The first group of treated and control mice returns to Earth live after approximately 30 days. The second group of animals remains on the ISS for approximately 60 days.

 https://www.nasa.gov/ames/research/space-biosciences/rodent-research-6-spacex-13
For RR-6, 40 mice will be placed in Rodent Transporters and flown to the ISS in SpaceX's Dragon capsule. Upon arrival, they will be transferred by the ISS crew to Rodent Habitats, where they will stay for the duration of the mission (up to 60 days). Each mouse will be implanted with a nanochannel delivery system, which will automatically release small and consistent doses of either formoterol or a control solution. After approximately 30 days, half of the mice will be returned to Earth alive, while the other half will remain in microgravity on the ISS for an additional 30 days before being humanely euthanized and returned to Earth on a later mission.

DRAGON RESUPPLY MISSION (CRS-14)

Welcome home, Dragon! Bringing back more than 4,000 pounds of NASA cargo, science and technology demonstration samples fr om the International Space Station, the Dragon spacecraft successfully returned to Earth, splashing down in the Pacific Ocean today at about 11:59 a.m. PDT.

The spacecraft will be taken by ship to Long Beach, California wh ere some cargo will be removed immediately for return to NASA. Dragon then will be prepared for a return trip to SpaceX's test facility in McGregor, Texas for final processing.
Спойлер
Dragon is the only space station resupply spacecraft currently capable of returning cargo to Earth, and this was the second trip to the space station for this spacecraft, which completed its first mission nearly two years ago. SpaceX launched its 14th Dragon resupply mission to the station April 2, 2018 from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida on a Falcon 9 rocket that previously supported SpaceX's12th space station resupply mission.
