News summary

Northrop Grumman's Cygnus spacecraft, launched on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Kennedy Space Center on August 4, encountered issues with its engine burns en route to the International Space Station (ISS). The spacecraft missed its initial burn due to a late entry to burn sequencing and then aborted a rescheduled burn due to slightly low initial pressure. Despite these setbacks, Cygnus is at a safe altitude with deployed solar arrays, and engineers are working on a new trajectory plan. The mission, Northrop Grumman's 21st commercial resupply for NASA, aims to deliver over 8,200 pounds of cargo, including scientific experiments and crew supplies. Live coverage of Cygnus's arrival at the ISS is scheduled for August 6.
