OriginalSpaceX CRS-20 mission, March 2020. The last Dragon 1 cargo spacecraft approaches the International Space Station.
Reason
The last Dragon 1 cargo spacecraft approaches the International Space Station to deliver supplies in 2020. The Dragon 1 cargo missions ran from 2010 to 2020. The program was retired in 2020 and was replaced with the Dragon 2 missions which carry both cargo and crew. In this photo, shot 267 miles above earth, Namibia is in the background. I looked at all the Dragon 1 missions and the nom photo is one of the better ones technically and has the distinction of being the last mission and most recent.
