Another Power-Generating Spacewalk Outside the Space Station on This Week @NASA – June 9, 2023
Another power-generating spacewalk outside the space station.
A commercial resupply spacecraft heads to the station.
And sharing the experience of a ride aboard the space station.
A few of the stories to tell you about – This Week at NASA!
On June 9, NASA astronauts Steve Bowen and Woody Hoburg conducted a spacewalk
to install an upgraded International Space Station Roll Out Solar Array, or IROSA.
This is the fifth of six new IROSAs being installed to augment the station’s
power system – the sixth is scheduled to be installed later this month.
Once all six are installed, the station could generate more than 30% more power.
SpaceX Dragon
“And liftoff of CRS-28. Go Falcon, go Dragon.”
The new International Space Station Roll Out Solar Arrays were delivered aboard the
SpaceX Dragon cargo spacecraft that launched to the station June 5
from your Kennedy Space Center.
The Dragon also delivered new science investigations, food, supplies,
and other equipment for the station crew.
This is SpaceX’s 28th commercial resupply services mission
to the space station for NASA.
NASA Headquarters
On June 5, NASA astronauts Nicole Mann and Josh Cassada, and Japan Aerospace
Exploration Agency astronaut Koichi Wakata
talked about their SpaceX Crew-5 mission to the International Space Station
during a post-flight event for employees at NASA headquarters.
They also visited with Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy,
and Associate Administrator Bob Cabana.
The Crew-5 astronauts spent 157 days in space.
Psyche
An independently appointed review board determined that actions taken by NASA,
our Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and Caltech
to put the Psyche mission on track for an October 2023 launch have been outstanding.
The Psyche spacecraft will travel to and study a metal-rich asteroid
of the same name.
The board was convened last summer after the mission team requested
to delay the spacecraft’s August 2022 launch.
That’s what’s up this week @NASA.
