Super-sized space freighter delayed on way to ISS, leaving snacks in jeopardy

Northrop Grumman's new Cygnus XL cargo spacecraft faced engine issues during an orbit-raising burn, postponing its arrival at the International Space Station. The craft, carrying 11,000 pounds of supplies, launched on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on September 14. This is the first Cygnus flight in over a year. NASA confirms other systems are working properly as controllers devise alternative plans to complete the mission, which will conclude with a destructive reentry after six months at the ISS.
