Cargo including science experiments and crew supplies will be delivered on Northrop Grumman’s eleventh contracted resupply mission (NG-11).
NASA’s launch today, March 14 coincides with Pi Day, with the date reading 3.14 – the first digits of Pi.
According to LiveScience.com Pi is an irrational number, meaning it cannot be written as a simple fraction.
Instead, it can be expressed as an infinite, nonrepeating decimal (3.14159…) or approximated as the fraction 22/7.
