CU Hardware Delivered To International Space Station

DENVER (CBS4) - The SpaceX Dragon on Sunday hooked up with the International Space Station and it carried some Colorado hardware.

A robotic arm reeled in the capsule for the rendezvous.

On board is high-tech equipment designed and built at the University of Colorado. The devices will be used in four different biomedical experiments. One will help researchers understand how cells behave in microgravity. Another could help develop treatment for bone and muscle loss.
