The “Cygnus” cargo spacecraft of American cargo spacecraft development company Northrop Grumman ended its mission to deliver scientific research materials and supplies to the International Space Station on the 9th and left the space station. According to NASA, at 12:44 EST on the 9th, space station astronauts released the “Cygnus” cargo spacecraft by operating a robotic arm. According to the plan, the spacecraft will deorbit on the 12th, return to the Earth's atmosphere, and be safely burned during re-entry.
