NASA's Space to Ground: Igniting the Future | Week of Dec. 8, 2023

NASA's Space to Ground: Igniting the Future | Week of Dec. 8, 2023

NASA's Space to Ground is your weekly update on what's happening aboard the International Space Station. Twenty-five years ago this week, the first two modules of the International Space Station—Zarya and Unity—were mated during the STS-88 mission of space shuttle Endeavour. The shuttle’s Canadarm robotic arm reached out and grappled Zarya that had been on orbit just over two weeks, and attached it to the Unity module stowed inside Endeavour’s payload bay. Endeavour would undock from the young dual-module station one week later beginning the space station assembly era.
