Still one of the most quietly impressive parts of modern spaceflight: a cargo run to the ISS now reads almost routine. That is basically the point, but it is easy to forget how absurdly hard “routine” orbital logistics actually is.

Title reads like the rocket was launched *from* a ship. I assume that is not the case?
