Somehow i imagine Cygnus being one of the module use in ISS for permanent storage, instead being disposed in atmosphere. This beautiful spacecraft deserve more usage

[@Vsauce314]

Idk if there’s more space at the iss.there’s a few docking port for Russian and 2 international port and one official berthing port

So like is it like planes were you buy a ticket on a certain seat and the other seats are designed or is it like we can take this much weight and we decide on our own were you "seat" your payload?

[@davidstevenson9517]

Note that the Dragon XL is a copy of Cygnus in almost every aspect: size, weight, form, payload capacity.
And those SpaceX Cultists claim their idol is original with far-reaching foresight that reflects his "genius".

How are the Alien captives ? I hope they are ok

[@IanCthrwd]

Need to step it up by making them reusable. Got enough space junk upstairs..got junk…whats left afterward re entry littering the seafloor.

Most probably disintegrates/evaporates before reaching the ocean. Reliability is still a good goal, of course.
