iss075e0189563 (Oct. 9, 2026) --- Northrop Grumman's Cygnus XL cargo spacecraft is held in the grip of the Canadarm2 robotic arm before its release from the International Space Station as both spacecraft orbited 265 miles above the North Atlantic Ocean. Cygnus XL reentered Earth's atmosphere three days later burning up harmlessly over the Pacific Ocean completing a six-month resupply mission at the orbital outpost.
