HTV-X1 Set for ISS Departure With Scheduled NASA/JAXA Coverage

NASA and JAXA’s HTV-X1 cargo spacecraft is slated to depart the International Space Station on March 6 after delivering about 12,000 pounds of cargo; undocking on March 5 will be performed by Canadarm2, with live coverage starting at 11:45 a.m. EST before the 12 p.m. release. NASA will not provide live coverage of the undocking. HTV-X1 will remain in orbit for more than three months as a platform for JAXA experiments and will burn up upon reentry, disposing of several thousand pounds of trash. HTV-X1 arrived at the ISS on Oct. 29, 2025, after a Oct. 25 launch on an H3 rocket from Tanegashima.

Dragon heads home from ISS after CRS-33 mission, proving orbital reboost capability

SpaceX’s Dragon cargo capsule is set to undock from the International Space Station today, closing the six‑month CRS‑33 mission that demonstrated a new capability to reboost the station’s orbit. During its stay, Dragon performed six reboosts and is returning experiments (Euro Material Aging samples and Thailand’s Liquid Crystals) and other gear, with splashdown planned in the Pacific off California on Feb. 27 around 2:44 a.m. EST (0744 GMT). The undocking marks another milestone for Dragon’s reusable cargo missions, which can help maintain ISS altitude, a capability previously handled by Russia’s Progress.
