Did someone order 7,300 pounds of science?
@SpaceX’s 22nd contracted resupply mission to the @Space_Station is targeted to launch Thurs., June 3. Get the details in the mission overview:

Using an image from the CRS-7 launch for this has got to be a good luck charm...

SpaceX CRS-22 Mission Overview
[snip]
Portable Water Dispense (PWD) Filter - Major filter assembly used to remove iodine from water consumed by the crew during nominal operations

Isn't
that the
Potable Water
Dispenser (PWD) Filter?
It looks like the "r" wandered around the press release.

This one has been provided earlier in the thread. Do you mean you are expecting another one, only from SpaceX ?
Yes. This is the NASA patch, SpaceX will have a different one. But it's usually published only shortly before launch.

I've heard that in the nearest CRS mission (SpX-22) the first stage of Falcon 9 is going to do the boostback.
Why are they doing it? Only time saving?

1st stage will do a partial boost back, makes reentry easier on the booster so it will need less refurbishment long term.

From Raul tweet above:
LHA map for #SpaceX #CRS-22 Dragon2 mission from LC-39A NET 03 Jun 17:29 UTC, alternatively 04 Jun based on issued NOTMAR/NOTAM. B1067.1 landing 303km downrange including partial boostback burn.
Using an image from the CRS-7 launch for this has got to be a good luck charm...
The targeted landing location for CRS-22, with the rare partial boostback, happens to be in the same area as that for CRS-7 and CRS-8! The coincidences will hopefully stop there.

What exactly is a partial boost back and why is it being used on this mission?

A boostback is an engine burn that takes it back to the landing site. In this case it’s a partial boostback to use up extra contingency propellant. It also reduces ASDS recovery time.

I would not be surprised if reducing ASDS recovery time is the prime driver here and we start seeing similar optimizations also in other launches - any spare first stage perf goes towards reducing the downrange distance even when there is not enough perf to do a land landing.
