    As the crew of Expedition 34 prepare for rendezvous with SpaceX's Dragon, Chris Hadfield takes us to the Robotic Workstation where they will command Canadarm2 to capture and dock the cargo vehicle. Filmed from inside the cupola, we are privileged with an inside look at how Canadarm2 is operated. Credit: CSA/NASA

    Capture of the Dragon occurred March 3, 2013 at 5:31 a.m. EST.

    New $5 and $10 Bank Notes

    Published on Apr 30, 2013

    Unveiling Ceremony of the New $5 and $10 Polymer Bank Notes

    The $5 note features Canadarm2 and Dextre symbolizing Canada's continuing contribution to the international space program through robotics innovation. The theme of the new $10 note is the Canadian train representing Canada's great technical feat of linking its eastern and western frontiers by what was, at the time, the longest railway ever built.

    Space Station Robotics: Installing a New Camera

    Published on Jul 28, 2014

    The Canadarm2 Boom B Camera Light Pan/tilt Assembly (CLPA) was producing a usable but hazy view with working lights, but could not be used for detailed inspections. The Mobile Base System (MBS) Mast CLPA has been unavailable since its failure in May 2012. The CLPA was removed from MBS Mast by EVA crew (July 2013) & returned to Earth on SpX-3 Dragon.

    This video shows the Canadian-built Dextre robot remove the CLPA from the Canadarm2 and move it to the Mobile Base mast location. Then the crew inside the station mounts a new CLPA to the US-built JEM ORU Transfer Interface (JOTI) and sends it outside the ISS via the Japanese-built airlock.

    Dextre then removes the camera from the JOTI and installs it on the Canadarm2, completing the ground controlled robotic repair operations.

    Moving Day! Canadarm2 prepares the ISS for future space taxis

    Published on May 26, 2015

    2015-05-26 - Here’s how Canadarm2 will move the Permanent Multipurpose Module aboard the International Space Station. Ground teams at the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and NASA will command the Canadian robotic arm to detach and relocate the module to make way for US commercial spacecraft that will begin ferrying astronauts to and from the space station in 2017.

    This CSA animation was created in our training simulator (where astronauts and flight controllers learn to operate Canadarm2) to give you an idea of how the real operations will unfold. Because space robots move very slowly for safety reasons, this clip condenses a full day of robotics action into a one-minute video. (Animation credit: Canadian Space Agency)

    Canadarm2 will attach the First Expandable Module to the ISS

    Published on Apr 8, 2016

    2016-04-08 - The Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM) will be launched to the ISS aboard a SpaceX Dragon cargo spacecraft on April 8, 2016. Once it is attached to the International Space Station by Canadarm2, BEAM will expand in volume, enabling crew members to enter it to conduct periodic testing during a two-year period. If successful, this expandable technology could increase habitable area and lower costs for future space exploration missions. (Credit: Canadian Space Agency)

    ROSA (Roll-Out Solar Array) technology demonstration

    Published on Jun 19, 2017

    2017-06-19 - Robotic experts from the Canadian Space Agency and NASA operated Canadarm2 and Dextre over the weekend to unload ROSA, the Roll-Out Solar Array, from Dragon’s cargo. The next steps will include maneuvering ROSA around to conduct a technology demonstration. (Credit: Canadian Space Agency)
