NASA announced three contracts to resupply the International Space Station from 2019 through 2024 on Thursday (Jan. 14). In addition to continuing flights by SpaceX’s Dragon and Orbital ATK’s Cygnus capsules, the agency also selected Sierra Nevada’s Dream Chaser spaceplane to deliver science equipment and crew logistics to the orbiting laboratory. Each company will fly at least six uncrewed cargo missions to the space station.
