Today I referred to Amateur Press Associations as "pre-Internet Discord servers". Fight me.

This #docking system was originally designed for the Apollo-Soyuz Test project in which an American Apollo and Soviet Soyuz spacecraft met in orbit and docked.
The #APAS, Androgynous Peripheral Attach System, can dock to any other APAS system, unlike a probe-and-drogue system.
The Soviets continued developing the system for their Mir station and Buran shuttle.
However, instead of a Soviet shuttle docking to Mir, it was the American Space Shuttle.
In a post-Cold War show of friendship, the #SpaceShuttle was modified with a docking collar meant for another vehicle and used it to visit Mir and deliver supplies and help change crews.

This #photograph was taken at the #Atlantis #museum, where Atlantis is on display at Kennedy Space Center Visitors Complex.

The Androgynous Peripheral Attach System, #APAS, was put into production to aid the joint #US-#Soviet #space mission, the #Apollo-#Soyuz Test Project (#ASTP).
An American Apollo craft and a Soviet Soyuz would rendezvous in orbit and dock.
Existing docking systems were “probe and drogue” type, and relied on an “active” component to enter a “passive” side of the docking system.
APAS was preferable to forcing one partner to not have an active role in the docking, as well as solved the engineering challenge on how to fit a new docking port on the Soyuz.
The US had to develop an adapter.
The USSR continued developing a new version of APAS to use with their shuttle, Buran.
The Kristall Mir module had 2 APAS docking ports that Buran would have used, but Buran’s APAS system was converted for use on the American Shuttle so it could dock.

#EY darf zwei Jahre keine neuen Prüfungsmandate bei Börsenkonzernen übernehmen. Die Prüferaufsicht #Apas hat im Skandal-Fall #Wirecard massive Pflichtverletzungen festgestellt.

The #rescue agreement was ratified on 📆 December 3, 1968 "upon becoming #aware that the personnel of a #spacecraft are in distress [...] any state party shall extend #assistance in the #rescue operation"

How about #prevention of #distress ?

#Tiangong is fitted with the #Chinese 🇨🇳 #docking mechanism based on the #Russian 🇷🇺 APAS-89/APAS-95 system. #NASA is describing it as a "clone" to #APAS on the #ISS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiangong_space_station#Docking
Would be an #alternative to a #risky landing with a partly operational #Soyuz in case of an #emergency (#depressurization / #ammonia #contamination or similar) ?

Wonder whether #GatewaySpaceport's #Hatship #pod got a docking mechanism which fits (both) ? https://gatewayspaceport.com/pod-2
