Now to the Space Station

Shortly after the latest Falcon 9 rocket launch (but with a slight delay because of a solar flare), one of the new Antares rockets launched as well. I started waiting for the Cygnus supply capsule on top of that rocket to get to the space station, but can now pass on how it's been linked up there. While I'd known a Cygnus had reached the space station before, that seems to have been the "test flight"; now, they're "expected" to get into orbit.
