cross post from OrbATK earnings call thread:

Quote from: Peter B. de Selding ‏@pbdes
Orbital CEO: 2 missions added to ISS cargo resupply contract to occur between mid-2017 and early 2018. So contract now extends to Q2 2018.

I'm assuming this means 2 more flights in addition to the previous extension, so we now have missions 8e, 9, and 10?

edit The more I look at what was said and the schedules, the less certain I am about whether OrbATK has 2 or 3 additional missions. I think it's possible the "2 missions added" includes the previously announced "8e" which was already planned for "mid-2017." So we would have missions 4-7 covering the original contract and 8e and 9 added.
