SpaceX Dragon Redocks to Station Before Next Cargo Mission
The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, with Expedition 72 crew members NASA astronauts Nick Hague, Suni Williams, and Butch Wilmore, as well as Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, autonomously redocked with the space-facing port of the station's Harmony module at 7:25 a.m. EST.
The port relocation frees up Harmony's forward-facing port for the 31st SpaceX commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station, which is scheduled to launch no earlier than 9:29 p.m., Monday, Nov. 4. This was the fifth port relocation of a Dragon spacecraft with crew aboard following previous moves during the Crew-1, Crew-2, Crew-6, and Crew-8 missions.
