Christmas turkey rocketed toward the International Space Station on Wednesday, along with cranberry sauce, candied yams and the obligatory fruitcake. It was the company's first missed ground landing, although it has overshot floating barges plenty of times in the past, a tougher feat to pull off. It should reach the space station Saturday. Twenty years ago this week, Cabana commanded the shuttle mission that carried up the first U.S. part of the space station . Just two days earlier, three astronauts arrived at the space station to join the three already there.
