Wednesday, Nov. 238:30 a.m. – Coverage of the rendezvous and docking of the SpaceX CRS-26 cargo Dragon resupply craft at the International Space Station (Docking scheduled at 9:43 a.m. EST)https://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/schedule.html#.V9B_0DXTt1o
Expedition 68 Flight Engineers Josh Cassada and Frank Rubio of NASA concluded their spacewalk at 4:25 p.m. EST after 7 hours and 11 minutes in preparation for upcoming solar array installation.Cassada and Rubio completed the majority of the primary objectives for today to assemble a mounting bracket on the starboard side of the station’s truss assembly in preparation for the installation of a pair of International Space Station Rollout Solar Arrays (iROSAs).The duo completed the routing of cables on the 3A power channel, and began the installation process of a modification kit on the 1B power channel, which will act as a scaffolding for the new solar arrays.
ISS, November 18. /TASS/. Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitry Petelin, who is also a TASS special correspondent on the ISS, have completed the spacewalk, according to a Roscosmos live broadcast."The new day begins ... and the spacewalk is complete," Roscosmos confirmed on its Telegram channel.The cosmonauts began extravehicular activities at 5:39 p.m. Moscow time on Thursday. They spent 6 hours and 25 minutes in outer space. For Prokopyev it was the third spacewalk of his career, while Petelin sucessfully accomplished his first one.After beginning spacewalk, Petelin reported back to Earth that his sensor showed "high gas temperature". An export from the Mission Control Center (MCC) told him that "the sensor is wrong <...> everything is normal".The cosmonauts then proceeded to move to the Rassvet module. There they installed the cargo boom adapter, prepared the radiator for transfer to the Nauka research module. Among other things, the cosmonauts blew off the conservation nitrogen pressure and dismantled the ties. This radiator is needed to remove additional thermal loads from the research module during scientific experiments. The radiator transfer will take place during one of the next spacewalks using the ERA robotic arm.Cosmonauts also installed an interlock on the cargo boom, which crew members can use to move between the Zarya and Poisk modules, and deployed a fastener for large objects on the Nauka module.

SpaceX is targeting Tuesday, November 22 for Falcon 9’s launch of Dragon’s 26th Commercial Resupply Services (CRS-26) mission to the International Space Station from Launch Complex 39A (LC-39A) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The instantaneous launch window is at 3:54 p.m. ET (20:54 UTC), and a backup launch opportunity is available on Saturday, November 26 at 2:20 p.m. ET (19:20 UTC), pending range approval.Following stage separation, Falcon 9’s first stage will land on the Just Read the Instructions droneship in the Atlantic Ocean. This is the first flight of the Dragon spacecraft supporting this mission.Dragon will autonomously dock with the space station on Wednesday, November 23 at approximately 6:30 a.m. ET (11:30 UTC).
NASA, SpaceX Target New Launch Date for Next Commercial Cargo MissionLinda Herridge Posted on November 18, 2022NASA and SpaceX are targeting no earlier than 3:54 p.m. EST Tuesday, Nov. 22, for the launch of the agency’s CRS-26 mission to the International Space Station with a backup opportunity on Saturday, Nov. 26 at 2:20 p.m. EST.

One such research project is CubeSat NB, which allows learners to participate in the design, build, and testing of New Brunswick's first cube satellite, named VIOLET after the provincial flower. VIOLET will help deliver new insights to scientists and researchers on the Earth's ionosphere. NBCC students have used their senior technical projects to develop a UHF helical antenna and software-defined radio for the CubeSat NB ground station, as well as to revise and enhance one of VIOLET's printed circuit boards. Once built and tested, the satellite will be launched to – and then deployed from – the International Space Station in 2023.
In May of 2018, the Dalhousie Space System Lab (DSS) was awarded $200,000 by the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) to design and build a CubeSat to pursue space related research topics. The name of the CubeSat is LORIS. It has multi-spectral imagery and high frequency up-link / down-link capabilities.
The ESSENCE mission will fly a 3U-CubeSat that will be designed and built by the project team, launched from the International Space Station via a US launching service provider – NanoRacks, and operated by the team via the ground station at York University. The CubeSat is expected to launch sometime in Q4 2022 to Q1 2023.
As such, Ex-Alta 2 is part of a team of Canadian-built satellites, each with their own mission and team of contributors. Ex-Alta 2 is expected to launch sometime early 2023 as part of a refueling mission to the International Space Station.
RADSAT-SK (IDRSat)
RADSAT-SK is a joint project between the USST, The University of Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan Polytechnic, and the Canadian Space Agency. Once it launches to orbit in late 2023, it will become Saskatchewan’s first satellite in space.
The NEUDOSE CubeSat is expected to be launched from the International Space Station in January 2023.
Western University - Nunavut Arctic College CubeSat ProjectThe Ukpik-1 CubeSat Project is scheduled to launch in January 2023 and begin operations in April 2023. Read on for an overview of the project!
The exact date of launch is unknown, but for the purposes of this study, a date of February 2023 was used for a launch date and May of 2023 was used as the satellite’s deployment date. These are the projected dates for the mission that ARKSAT-2 was most recently slated to be launched on, NG-18.
Meanwhile, the launch of SS-1 from the International Space Station (ISS) is planned for November this year.The satellite will be launched using one of the two space freighters— the SpaceX Dragon or Cygnus NG18.
Currently, the second batch of scholars of the STeP-UP Project is developing two more CubeSats, Maya-5 and Maya-6 which are built after the Maya-2 heritage and are slated to launch in 2023.

MOSCOW, November 25. /TASS/. Cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitry Petelin have halted preparations for their spacewalk over the malfunction of pumps in the cooling system of one of the spacesuits, Roscosmos said on Friday."An abnormal operation of pumps in the cooling system of one of the spacesuits has been found in the process of preparing the spacesuits for the extravehicular activity. A decision has been made to stop the preparations for the exit. The causes are being analyzed," Roscosmos said in a statement.The spacewalk was expected to begin at 2:20 p.m. Moscow time.The extravehicular activity scheduled for November 25 was set to become the fourth spacewalk in Prokopyev’s career and the second for Petelin. During their spacewalk, the cosmonauts were expected to move a heat exchanger from the Rassvet mini-research module to the Nauka multipurpose lab on the orbital outpost’s Russian segment with the help of the ERA robotic arm.The heat exchanger is needed to remove extra thermal loads from the Nauka multipurpose laboratory module during scientific experiments.The date of the next spacewalk will be specified after the causes of the cancelled extravehicular activity are analyzed, Roscosmos said.
