SpaceX Dragon Is About to Give ISS a Shove

SpaceX Dragon fires thrusters to boost ISS orbit for the 1st time
Dragon isn't the first U.S.-built spacecraft to lend its fuel to the space station's orbit. NASA tested an ISS orbit reboost using a Northrop Grumman Cygnus cargo vehicle in 2022. The data from Dragon's reboost, however, will ultimately pave the way for a catastrophic "un-boosting" of the space station's orbit.
SpaceX's Dragon is about to do something to the ISS it's never done before
The data from the reboost, scheduled for Nov. 8, will help inform design for a larger Dragon to deorbit the ISS.
