SpaceX CRS-2 launch. Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) Falcon 9 rocket lifting off from Space Launch Complex 40, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida, USA, at 10:10am local time (EST) on 1 March 2013. The rocket is carrying a Dragon capsule filled with cargo. This is the third trip by the SpaceX Dragon capsule to the International Space Station (ISS). This mission is the second of 12 SpaceX flights contracted by NASA to resupply the ISS. It originated from NASAs COTS (Commercial Orbital Transportation Services) initiative, set up to encourage private companies to ship cargo to the ISS after the retirement of the shuttle program in 2011

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic SpaceX CRS-2 launch that took place on March 1,2013. The image showcases the awe-inspiring moment when the Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) Falcon 9 rocket gracefully ascended from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, USA. At precisely 10:10 am local time, this technological marvel ignited its powerful Merlin engine and embarked on a crucial mission to resupply the International Space Station (ISS). Carrying a Dragon capsule filled with essential cargo, this marked the third trip by SpaceX's Dragon capsule to the ISS. This significant milestone was part of NASA's initiative called COTS (Commercial Orbital Transportation Services), which aimed to encourage private companies like SpaceX to contribute to space exploration after the retirement of NASA's shuttle program in 2011. The photograph beautifully encapsulates North America's prowess in aerospace engineering and technology as it showcases an iconic moment in space flight history. It symbolizes humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and our ability to push boundaries beyond Earth. As one gazes upon this remarkable image, they are reminded of how far we have come in our quest for understanding outer space. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and highlights the collaborative efforts between public institutions like NASA and private entities such as SpaceX that continue shaping our future among the stars.
