SpaceX launches used supply ship on used rocket for NASA

CAPE CANAVERAL, FLORIDA – SpaceX has launched a used supply ship on a used rocket to the International Space Station. The Falcon rocket blasted off from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Monday, bearing a Dragon capsule full of food, experiments and other station goods for NASA. The Dragon and its 2,700-kilogram shipment should reach the space station Wednesday. The station astronauts will use a robot arm to grab it. It's the second trip to the orbiting lab for this particular Dragon, recycled following a visit two years ago. The Falcon's first-stage booster also flew before -- last summer.
