Spacex launched a supply ship used on a used rocket to the International space station.
The Falcon rocket launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Monday, hoisting a Dragon capsule full of food, experiments and other station products for NASA.
The dragon and his 6000 lb shipment should reach the space station Wednesday. The station astronauts will use the robot to grab it.
This is the second trip to the lab in orbit for this particular Dragon, restored after a visit two years ago. In the first stage Falcon Booster also came early last summer.
Spacex has combined with the redesigned Dragon and the Falcon recycled before. The company aims to reduce the cost of launch through the use of missile parts.
Currently, the space station is home to astronauts from the United States, Russia and Japan.
