ISS astronauts show what it’s like to capture a spacecraft with a robotic arm (video)

ISS astronauts show what it’s like to capture a spacecraft with a robotic arm (video)
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Robot, meet spacecraft.

A new video shows what it’s like to capture a visiting cargo ship at the International Space Station (ISS) — specifically, a Northrop Grumman Cygnus vehicle, which arrived Feb. 1 with vital supplies for the Expedition 70 crew.

NASA astronauts Jasmin Moghbeli and Loral O’Hara worked together at the controls of the Canadarm2 robot arm, in the ISS wraparound Cupola window, to make the cosmic catch. Moghbeli posted the footage on X, formerly Twitter, on Feb. 13.

Canadarm2 is the second generation of robot arm from the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and is now managed by supplier MDA. First used in the space shuttle program, the Canadarm series has assisted on spacewalks, hefted space station modules, repeatedly released and scooped up the Hubble Space Telescope, and performed many other tasks besides.

First installed on the ISS in 2001 by CSA astronaut Chris Hadfield and NASA astronaut Scott Parazynski, Canadarm2 was joined by a robotic helper named Dextre in 2008. Dextre specializes in moving smaller things around that require more dexterity. 

Canadarm2 was not exactly designed for berthing space station ships. But it has proved so capable that it has done dozens of these captures since May 2012, when a SpaceX Dragon cargo ship arrived at the ISS for the first time.

CSA and MDA are both working on successor robotic technology, called Canadarm3. This arm — complete with a large limb, a small limb and a “backpack” that can carry supplies around — will be mounted on NASA’s moon-orbiting Gateway station, which the agency aims to start assembling in the next few years. 

CSA brokers seats and science on the ISS and NASA’s Artemis moon program using its Canadarm series. Canadarm3 funded astronaut Jeremy Hansen’s seat aboard the round-the-moon mission Artemis 2, for example, that should fly in 2025 or so. The next CSA astronaut on ISS will be Joshua Kutryk, also in 2025.
