Loop said ground station issue. NASA tweeting satellite issue. So bets are a TDRS satellite is throwing a fit. Good news is they have several, so likely going to hold and use a different one for capture.

Issue is resolved. Will depart 30 meter hold point shortly to return to 10 meter capture point.

The Dragon supply ship has started moving toward the space station again, heading for the 10-meter (32-foot) hold point for capture by the robotic arm.

With the space station and Dragon spacecraft now flying in a night pass over the East China Sea, mission control has given the "go" for Alexander Gerst and Serena Auñón-Chancellor to begin preparations to grapple the cargo capsule with the robotic arm.

Dragon in the Grips of Robotic Arm, Installation Occurs Next

The SpaceX Dragon cargo craft is moments way from being captured with the Canadarm2 robotic arm.

While the International Space Station was traveling about 250 miles over the Pacific Ocean north of Papua New Guinea, Expedition 57 Commander Alexander Gerst of ESA (European Space Agency) and Flight Engineer Serena Auñón-Chancellor, captured the Dragon spacecraft at 7:21 a.m. EST using the space station's Canadarm2 robotic arm.

Ground controllers will now send commands to begin the robotic installation of the spacecraft on bottom of the station's Harmony module. NASA Television coverage of installation is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Watch online at www.nasa.gov/live.

The Dragon lifted off on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida Wednesday, Dec 5 with more than 5,600 pounds of research, equipment, cargo and supplies that will support dozens of investigations aboard the orbiting laboratory.

The International Space Station is an accessible space laboratory with unparalleled capability that is increasing knowledge of engineering and physical sciences, biology, the Earth, and the universe through research and technology demonstrations and providing the foundation for continuing human spaceflight beyond low-Earth orbit. NASA's human research is closing the gaps in current scientific understanding of how best to predict, assess, and solve the problems that humans encounter while living and working in space, and extend that knowledge to protect the women and men who will go forward to the Moon and Mars.
