<\/a>On Saturday, June 25, Northrop Grumman\u2019s Cygnus completed its first limited reboost of the International Space Station. Cygnus\u2019 gimbaled delta velocity engine was used to adjust the space station\u2019s orbit through a reboost of the altitude of the space station. The maneuver lasted 5 minutes, 1 second and raised the station\u2019s altitude 1\/10 of a mile at apogee and 5\/10 of a mile at perigee. This Cygnus mission is the first to feature this enhanced capability as a standard service for NASA, following a test of the maneuver which was performed in 2018 during Cygnus\u2019s ninth resupply mission. Cygnus arrived to the orbital outpost in February and is slated to depart from space station Tuesday, June 28, where it will burn up harmlessly in the Earth\u2019s atmosphere. NASA TV coverage for the unberthing will begin at 5:45 am EDT on NASA TV<\/a>, the agency\u2019s website, and the NASA app<\/a>.<\/p>\n Learn more about station activities by following the\u00a0space station blog<\/a>,\u00a0@space_station<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0@ISS_Research<\/a>\u00a0on Twitter, as well as the\u00a0ISS Facebook<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0ISS Instagram<\/a>\u00a0accounts.<\/p>\n Get weekly video highlights at:\u00a0http:\/\/jscfeatures.jsc.nasa.gov\/videoupdate\/<\/a><\/p>\n Get the latest from NASA delivered every week.
