On Saturday, a Dragon cargo ship caught up with the international space station and brought 5,000 pounds of the equipment and supplies to the outpost, including a new docking mechanism, the mechanism will provide a second port for commercial crew ships built by Boeing and SpaceX.
Sailing 260 miles to the southern tip of South America, the unmanned Dragon stops at about 30 feet of the lab building and then operates the space station\'s Canada-

The robot arm of the International Space Station captured a SpaceX Dragon cargo ship carrying 5,000 pounds supplies and equipment.
The unmanned capsule was launched on Thursday at Cape Canaveral, carrying the Falcon 9 rocket.
NASA flight controllers at the Johnson Space Center in Houston subsequently took over arm operations, remotely controlling the space crane to pull the dragon in and moored on Earth in the harmony cabinfacing port.
