Day 252: Look up
It’s Adventure Day!
Today’s Activity: Keep an eye out for the International Space Station overhead.
After a very careful parking job last night, the Resilience capsule has docked with the ISS, bringing new astronauts on board. It was a delicate operation, as NASA’s flight director explained:
Launch plus 1 = docking day
Yesterday was about the raw power of a rocket flinging a capsule
Today I get to preside over a ballet
The delicate dance of "how do you gently put this capsule at a certain spot within a few millimeters"
It's easy to throw. Catching is harder.

If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to spot them passing by in your night sky. NASA’s Spot The Station lets you sign up for notifications of when the ISS will be overhead and where to look.
