The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft that was residing at the International Space Station for the past month has successfully returned to Earth. It landed just over 300 miles off the coast of Mexico in the Pacific Ocean as planned.
The CRS-4/SpX-4, as it's known, launched from Cape Canaveral on September 21 and returned October 25. It carried nearly 5,000 pounds of supplies, including a 3D printer, 20 mice and two Extravehicular Mobility Unit batteries, to the station. It is returning with almost 4,000 pounds of unneeded equipment and supplies.
