Result: Successful Return to Launch Site landing at Landing Zone 1.The C112 capsule was flown on CRS-10, CRS-16 and CRS-20. On CRS-10 the capsule lifted off from the Kennedy Space Center from pad 39A. This was the first flight from this pad since STS-135 left the pad in mid-2011. The vehicle experienced some software issues meaning its berthing was delayed for a day. Now on display in Waco, Texas at the Bledsoe-Miller STEAM Center.
