In preparation for the arrival of NASA's SpaceX 31st commercial resupply services mission, four crew members aboard the International Space Station will relocate the agency's SpaceX Crew-9 Dragon spacecraft to a different docking port Sunday, Nov. 3.
Live coverage begins at 6:15 a.m. EST on NASA+ and will end shortly after docking. Learn how to watch NASA content through a variety of platforms, including social media.
NASA astronauts Nick Hague, Suni Williams, and Butch Wilmore, as well as Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, will undock the spacecraft from the forward-facing port of the station's Harmony module at 6:35 a.m., and redock to the module's space-facing port at 7:18 a.m.
The relocation, supported by flight controllers at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston and the Mission Control team at SpaceX in Hawthorne, California, will free Harmony's forward-facing port for a Dragon cargo spacecraft mission scheduled to launch no earlier than Monday, Nov. 4.
This will be 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.
