Cygnus NG-12 S. S. Alan Bean
First Cygnus mission under the CRS-2 contract — the second-generation ISS resupply agreement NASA had awarded in 2016, extending Northrop Grumman's freighter service through the decade. STPSat-4, a Department of Defense Space Test Program free-flyer carrying six experimental payloads, was deployed from the Kibo airlock in late January 2020.
