A rocket carrying Japan's seventh H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV-7) is poised to launch next Monday on a cargo delivery mission to the International Space Station. The Expedition 56 crew members trained for the HTV-7's arrival...

On Sept. 10, the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) is launching a cargo craft, exactly nine years to the day JAXA launched its first HTV mission, to the space station. The HTV-7 will take a four-day trip before reaching a point just 10 meters away from the orbital lab. Commander Drew Feustel will then grapple it with the Canadarm2 robotic arm as Flight Engineer Serena Auñón-Chancellor backs him up inside the cupola.

The duo practiced for next week's approach and rendezvous of the HTV-7 ...

After the HTV-7 arrives, robotics controllers will begin the work of removing six new lithium-ion batteries from the HTV-7's External Pallet and storing them on the Port 4 (P4) truss structure. They will replace a dozen older nickel-hydrogen batteries on the station's P4. Nine of the older batteries will be stowed inside the HTV-7 for disposal and the other three stored on the P4.

In the mission of HTV7 ("KOUNOTORI 7"), after completing the re-supply mission to ISS, HTV7 will demonstrate the novel technology for recovering experiment samples fr om ISS, which Japan has not obtained up until now, by taking advantage of the opportunity of re-entry into Earth with the HTV Small Re-entry Capsule (HSRC) that will be loaded on the HTV for the first time ever.
Спойлер
HSRC mission

The HSRC with experiment samples on board will be attached onto the hatch of the Pressurized Logistic Carrier (PLC) of the HTV7 before the HTV7 departs (un-berthed) from ISS. After the HTV7 deorbit burn finished, the capsule will be released from the PLC by the command from the ground and re-enter into Earth's atmosphere, and subsequently descend on a parachute. The capsule will be recovered from the ocean after splashdown.

Installation of HSRC

Before the HTV7 departs from ISS, the crew will load an HSRC-exclusive structure (cylindrical support) onto the hatch at the entry of the Pressurized Logistic Carrier for air tightness (while the hatch of the HTV7 is left open). Onto the structure, the HSRC with the separation mechanism attached will be fixed.
After completing the de-orbit maneuver, the HTV7 will operate the separation mechanism of the HSRC according to the command received from the ground to separate the HSRC from the vehicle.

The HSRC will re-enter Earth's atmosphere in a guided lift flight, deploy a parachute, and splash down into the sea, which in turn be picked up by Recovery Ship.

Experiment samples taken out from the HSRC will be loaded onto an airplane on Minamitori Island, immediately delivered to the mainland of Japan (The HSRC itself will remain aboard the recovery ship to be delivered to the mainland).

ЦитироватьNext stop space: Researchers to carry out 'cosmic elevator' experiment

August 26, 2018 (Mainichi Japan)

[/url]
An artist's rendering of a space elevator envisaged by Obayashi Corp. is seen in this image provided by the contractor.

A team made up of researchers at Shizuoka University and other institutions is set to conduct an experiment in September for a project to develop a "space elevator" connecting Earth and a space station by cable -- attracting attention as a possible dream vehicle for space travel and cargo shipments in the future.

The experiment will be the first of its kind ever to be conducted in space. However, a number of challenges, including the development of special, high-strength cables, await researchers before they can bring a cosmic elevator into reality.

In the experiment, two ultra-small cubic satellites, which were developed by Shizuoka University Faculty of Engineering, will be used. Each satellite measures 10 centimeters each side, and a roughly 10-meter-long steel cable will be employed to connect the twin satellites. The pair of satellites will be released from the International Space Station (ISS), and a container acting like an elevator car will be moved on a cable connecting the satellites using a motor. A camera attached to the satellites will record the movements of the container in space.

The microsatellites will be carried to the ISS by the H-IIB Vehicle No. 7, which is scheduled for launch from the Tanegashima Space Center in Kagoshima Prefecture on Sept. 11, alongside other small satellites. While an experiment to extend a cable in space has been conducted before, it will be the first test to move a container on a cable in outer space. If the experiment proves successful, it will serve as a step forward toward realizing cosmic elevators.
Спойлер
Should a space elevator ever actually be realized, people could travel to the ISS without using a launch vehicle, and transport supplies at low cost. It is envisaged that a variety of supplies -- such as panels for solar power generation and materials for research and development in space -- could also be transported to space.

Major contractor Obayashi Corp., which is taking part in the experiment as a technical adviser, is also studying a space elevator on its own. Under the firm's concept, six oval-shaped cars -- each measuring 18 meters long and 7.2 meters in diameter with a capacity of 30 people -- will constitute a space elevator. A cable connecting a platform to be set up on the sea with a space station some 36,000 kilometers in altitude will be used to move the elevator up and down using an electric motor pulley.

Researchers expect that a space elevator can speed up to 200 kilometers per hour and arrive at a space station eight days after departure from Earth. The total length of a cable to be used for the vehicle will be 96,000 kilometers, and the total cost is estimated at 10 trillion yen -- about the same as that for the maglev train project connecting Tokyo and Osaka at roughly 9 trillion yen. The cost of transport is expected to be several tens of thousands of yen per kilogram of load, about one-hundredth of that of the space shuttle.

"In theory, a space elevator is highly plausible. Space travel may become something popular in the future," said Yoji Ishikawa, 63, who leads the research team.

Various challenges await researchers, however, before they can make cosmic elevators come true, with success in the development of a high-strength cable a key factor. Such cables must be resistant to high-energy cosmic rays. Carbon nanotube is a strong candidate for materials making up the cables. Other tasks include figuring out how to transmit electricity from Earth to space, and how to avoid space debris and meteorites from colliding with space elevators.

Professor Yoshio Aoki of Nihon University College of Science and Technology, who supervises Obayashi Corp.'s space elevator project, said, "It is essential for industries, educational institutions and the government to join hands together for technological development."

JAXA's (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) HTV-7 is delivering a wide variety of science gear to support new research aboard the orbital lab. The new facilities will enable astronauts to observe physical processes at high temperatures, protein crystal growth and genetic alterations as well as a variety of other important space phenomena.

HTV-7, also known as Kounotori, is also carrying six new lithium-ion batteries that robotics controllers will remove then install on the station's port 4 truss structure. Astronauts Alexander GerstDrew Feustel and Ricky Arnold will complete the battery maintenance work over two spacewalks set for Sept. 20 and 26.

Feustel will lead the effort to capture Kounotori when he commands the Canadarm2 robotic arm to reach out and grapple it Friday at 7:40 a.m. He trained today with Flight Engineer Serena Auñón-Chancellor, who will back him up in the Cupola, practicing capture techniques on a computer.

NASA Television to Air Launch, Capture of Japanese Cargo Ship to Space Station


The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's (JAXA) unpiloted H-II Transport Vehicle-6 (HTV-6) makes its final approach to the International Space Station Dec. 13, 2016.

A Japanese cargo ship loaded with more than five tons of supplies, water, spare parts and experiments is scheduled to launch to the International Space Station at 6:32 p.m. EDT Monday, Sept. 10 (7:32 a.m. Sept. 11 in Japan). Live coverage of the launch and capture will air on NASA Television and the agency's website.

The Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's (JAXA) unpiloted H-II Transport Vehicle-7 (HTV-7) is scheduled to lift off fr om the Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan nine years to the day after the flight of the first HTV cargo spacecraft. Live coverage will begin at 6 p.m.

HTV-7 will arrive at the space station Friday, Sept. 14. Live coverage of spacecraft rendezvous will begin at 6 a.m. Expedition 56 Commander Drew Feusteland Flight Engineer Serena Auñón-Chancellor of NASA will operate the station's Canadarm2 robotic arm to capture the spacecraft as it approaches from below. Flight Engineer Alexander Gerst of ESA (European Space Agency) will monitor HTV-7 systems during its approach to the orbiting complex. Capture is scheduled for around 7:40 a.m. After a break, NASA TV coverage will resume at 11 a.m. for spacecraft installation to the space station's Harmony module by ground controllers operating Canadarm2 remotely.

Named Kounotori, White Stork in Japanese, the unpiloted cargo spacecraft is loaded with six new lithium-ion batteries and adapter plates to replace aging nickel-hydrogen batteries that make up part of the station's electrical power system. The batteries will be replaced through a series of robotic operations and two spacewalks planned for Sept. 20 and 26.

Also aboard HTV-7 is a small reentry capsule designed by JAXA that will be assembled by the station crew prior to HTV-7's departure this fall. The cone-shaped capsule, measuring 2 feet high and 2.7 feet wide, is an experimental technology demonstration designed to test JAXA's ability to return small Japanese science payloads from the station for expedited delivery to researchers. Following HTV-7's departure from the station and several deorbit maneuvers, the capsule will be ejected from the spacecraft's hatch for a parachute-assisted splashdown off the coast of Japan, wh ere a JAXA ship will recover it.

Additional experiments and equipment in HTV-7 include a new sample holder for the Electrostatic Levitation Furnace (JAXA-ELF), a protein crystal growth experiment at low temperatures (JAXA LT PCG), an investigation that looks at the effect of microgravity on bone marrow (MARROW), a Life Sciences Glovebox, and additional EXPRESS Racks.

HTV-7 will reenter Earth's atmosphere after its deorbit maneuvers to burn up harmlessly over the South Pacific Ocean this fall.
