Dragon

The Dragon commercial space ferry seen from the International Space Station during a demonstration of its manoeuvring capabilities on 24 May 2012.

Once cleared for approach, Dragon stopped 10 m from the Space Station where ESA astronaut André Kuipers and NASA astronaut Don Pettit used a robotic arm to grab and dock the spacecraft.

Dragon brought supplies and equipment to the orbital outpost and will return to Earth a week later.
