[b]SS Ellison Onizuka captured, attached to station[/b] Expedition 65 flight engineer Megan McArthur used the International Space Station's Canadarm2 robotic arm to grapple Northrop Grumman's NG-16 Cygnus spacecraft on Thursday (Aug. 12) at 6:07 a.m. EDT (1007 GMT). The spacecraft was flying about 260 miles (420 km) above the Atlantic Ocean, southwest of Lisbon, Portugal, at the time of capture. Ground controllers then commanded the space station's arm to rotate and install the S.S. Ellison Onizuka on the Earth-facing side the Unity module.
