Associated space launch

This was the fourth flight for SpaceX's uncrewed Dragon cargo spacecraft, the fifth and final flight for the company's two-stage Falcon 9 v1.0 launch vehicle, and the second SpaceX operational mission contracted to NASA under a Commercial Resupply Services contract. The launch occurred on March 1, 2013. A minor technical issue on the Dragon spacecraft involving the RCS thruster pods occurred upon reaching orbit, but it was recoverable. The vehicle was released, splashed down, and recovered by SpaceX.

DRAGON CRS-2 was lifted into orbit during the mission ‘Falcon 9 v1.0 | SpX CRS-2’, on board a Falcon 9 space rocket.

The launch took place on March 1, 2013, 3:10 p.m. from Space Launch Complex 40.
