NASA Public Affairs Officer Kyle Herring talks with Sean Kelly, NASA Senior Project Manager for the Relocation and IDA, about new hardware coming to the International Space Station this year. The International Docking Adapters, fabricated at a Boeing facility near the Johnson Space Center in Houston, will be installed on two of the station’s docking ports so future commercial crew vehicles can attach themselves to the station. The upcoming spacewalks by Exp. 42 crew members Barry Wilmore and Terry Virts will install cabling to supply power to the IDAs when they are installed on the Harmony module.
