Northrop Grumman’s CRS-17 Cygnus spacecraft, dubbed “S.S. Piers Sellers”, was berthed to the Earth-facing port of the International Space Station’s Unity module on 21 February 2022, at 12:02 UTC (07:02 EST). For NASA’s Commercial Resupply Services-2 (CRS-2) NG-17 mission, Cygnus delivers approximately 3765 kg (8,300 pounds) of research, crew supplies, and hardware to the International Space Station. The NG-17 Cygnus Cargo Delivery Spacecraft is named in honor of the late NASA astronaut Piers Sellers.
