ORBITAL "Antares / Orb-2 "

CRS (Commercial Resupply Services)

Second "Cygnus" - ISS Commercial Resupply Services Mission

"Janice Voss"

 

 

This is the second of eight commercial cargo resupply missions to the ISS under the NASA Commercial Resupply Services (CRS) contract and as a tribute it bears the name of the late Shuttle astronaut Janice Voss.

Antares was successfully launched on July 13, 2014 from Pad 0A, Mid Atlantic Regional Spaceport on Wallops Island, Virgina.

The AXM version for the Antares rocket papermodel was made possible from photos obtained from Spaceflight Now website. The graphic details for the Cygnus cargo vessel were obtained from photos from various sources including Orbital's website and NASASpaceFlight.com forum.

The papermodel is the same as the Cygnus from mission Orb-1 and it comes in launch configuration version for 1:100 scale only with the Castor 30 Solid Motor engine.

ENJOY!!
