Cygnus NG-10 tidigare känd som CRS OA-10E, var en flygningen av en av företaget Northrop Grummans Cygnus rymdfarkoster till Internationella rymdstationen (ISS). Farkosten sköts upp med en Antares 230 raket, från Wallops Flight Facility i Virginia, den 17 november 2018.

Farkosten kallades S.S. John Young och är uppkallad efter den avlidne amerikanske astronauten John W. Young.

Målet med flygningen var att leverera material och förnödenheter till ISS.

Farkosten dockades med rymdstationen med hjälp av Canadarm2, den 19 november 2018.

Den lämnade rymdstationen den 8 februari 2019.

Den 25 februari 2019, brann farkosten som planerat upp i jordens atmosfär.

ISS021-E-017623 (30 Oct. 2009) --- Backdropped by a cloud-covered part of Earth, the unpiloted Japanese H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV), filled with trash and unneeded items, departs from the International Space Station. European Space Agency astronaut Frank De Winne, Expedition 21 commander; NASA astronaut Nicole Stott and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Robert Thirsk, both flight engineers, used the station's Canadarm2 robotic arm to grab the HTV cargo craft and unberth it from the Harmony node's nadir port. The HTV was successfully unberthed at 10:18 a.m. (CDT) on Oct. 30, 2009, and released from the station's Canadarm2 at 12:32 p.m.

S.S. John Young at the Space Station
  • "Captured Cygnus today with @Astro_Alex…Proud to have The SS John Young on-board!" said astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor today, as the International Space Station crew brought aboard the latest Northrop Grumman Cygnus cargo craft, loaded with close to 7,400 pounds of research and supplies.
  • The Cygnys spacecraft will spend about three months attached to the space station before departing in February 2019. After it leaves the station, the uncrewed spacecraft will deploy several cubesats before its fiery re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere.
