American space agency POT managed to maneuver in orbit international space station (ISS) thanks to the help of a dry cargo ship Swanthereby achieving reinforcement without the need Russia.

A spacecraft docked at the station fired its rockets to correct its orbit in a successful test that marks an emergency exit in case something goes wrong on Earth.

It was a test

Within five minutes the ship Swan, Northrop Grumman managed to raise the height international space station thanks to the ignition of his rockets, which allowed him to rise to a height of 160 to 805 meters. All this is 402 kilometers from Earth.

ISS It was not in its correct orbit after a recent maneuver to avoid collision with fragments of the Russian satellite Kosmos 1408.

Although this test has already been tested once in 2018, this is the first time a reboot has been used.

A cargo ship called the Sellers Pier arrived at the station on February 21 with 3,700 pounds of supplies, equipment and other cargo for POT. It will fire its engine again on Wednesday (June 29) on deorbit, which will send it on a destructive re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere.

Because it matters?

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, there has been a flurry of talk about what will happen in International Space Station, whose US-Russian cooperation is vital to its functioning.

Russia He has repeatedly stated that he hopes to exit the project, and they know that they are practically the only ones who control the orbit of the ship, since it is the Russian module that is responsible for the specified mission.

As indicated POT, “The space station was not designed to be disarmed, and the current interdependence between each segment of the station prevents the US orbital segment and the Russian segment from operating independently.”
