SpaceX successfully launched its Falcon 9 rocket on the CRS-33 cargo mission in late August 2025, marking the 50th visit of a Dragon spacecraft to the International Space Station (ISS). Carrying over 5,000 pounds of science, food, and supplies, this mission was unique as the Dragon featured an enhanced trunk with extra Draco engines for future ISS reboosts, making it the first long-duration cargo mission with extended capabilities.
