OA-7 Cargo Module Hatch Closure

In the Space Station Processing Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the hatch has been closed on the Cygnus spacecraft's pressurized cargo module (PCM) for the Orbital ATK CRS-7 mission to the International Space Station. The module will be rotated to vertical for mating to the service module. Scheduled to launch on March 19, 2017, the commercial resupply services mission will lift off atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket from Space launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
