NASA troubleshooting transporter for space station robotic arm
Original: NASA ‘troubleshooting’ transporter for space station’s robotic arm [Updated]
NASA says it is troubleshooting a transporter mechanism that moves the International Space Station's robotic arm along the station's truss. The issue affects the mobile base that allows the Canadarm2 to reposition itself for station maintenance and operations. NASA reports the station and its crew remain safe while engineers work the problem, though the arm's mobility may be limited until a fix is found.
Why now: A hardware problem with critical space station robotics raises concerns about maintenance and station operations.
