NASA coverage is underway as four crew members aboard the International Space Station take a short trip inside their SpaceX Dragon to relocate the spacecraft from one docking port to another.
Undocking is scheduled at 7:10 a.m. EDT with redocking planned at 7:53 a.m. Relocation activities will air live on NASA Television, the NASA app, and the agency’s website.
The SpaceX Dragon, with Expedition 69 crew members Steve Bowen and Woody Hoburg of NASA, UAE (United Arab Emirates) astronaut Sultan Alneyadi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev, will undock from the space-facing port of the Harmony module, and redock to the station’s forward Harmony port.
This will be the 27th spacecraft relocation in station history. The move will make room for the arrival of the uncrewed SpaceX Dragon carrying cargo to station as part of the company’s 28th commercial resupply services mission for NASA, targeted to launch in June.
NASA’s SpaceX Crew-6 members are scheduled to return to Earth in August.
