The Canadarm lifted Unity and started the seven‑hour race for air
In this episode, the mission of STS‑88 is presented: the shuttle Endeavour carrying Unity rendezvouses with the already-orbiting Russian module Zarya to begin the first physical assembly of the International Space Station. The episode follows the crew, the hardware and the ticking orbital clock-could forty connectors installed by two spacewalkers in seven hours be enough?
Mission: STS‑88
Date: December 4-15, 1998
Location: Low Earth orbit, ~240 miles altitude
Person: Commander Robert Cabana; Pilot Frederick Sturckow; Mission Specialists Jerry Ross, James Newman, Nancy Currie, Sergei Krikalev
Object: Unity (Node One) and Zarya (Dawn)
- Unity arrived at Kennedy Space Center June 23, 1997 and sat sealed with placards pointing to unbuilt corridors.
- Zarya launched from Baikonur on a Proton in November 1998 and began orbiting before Endeavour lifted.
- Endeavour launched December 4, 1998 at 03:35:34 with a six‑person crew tasked to rendezvous and connect two modules.
- Nancy Currie operated the Canadarm to lift Unity from the shuttle bay while Ross and Newman prepared for multiple spacewalks.
- The assembly depended on two suited astronauts installing forty connectors and cables during a roughly seven‑hour EVA while orbital timing grew tighter each revolution.
