1
00:00:02,380 --> 00:00:09,010
And earlier today we had taken you on location
here at the Johnson Space Center where we talked

2
00:00:09,010 --> 00:00:13,130
with Monica Visinsky, a test coordinator
for a new construction of a device.

3
00:00:13,130 --> 00:00:16,600
We're taking you back to Building 9 now again.

4
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:21,760
That is the location where the testing
of this new device is taking place.

5
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,680
It is that device once again is called
the Japanese Experiment Module ORU

6
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:26,820
Transfer Interface.

7
00:00:26,820 --> 00:00:32,700
You can see that here now,
close up, of it in operation.

8
00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:37,330
The device will allow the crew to put
Orbital Replacement Units, or ORUs,

9
00:00:37,330 --> 00:00:41,690
through this small airlock in
the Japanese Experiment Module.

10
00:00:41,690 --> 00:00:45,510
This is so Dextre, the station's
two-armed robot,

11
00:00:45,510 --> 00:00:49,410
can change out those ORUs without a spacewalk.

12
00:00:49,410 --> 00:00:53,760
With the new device any of these
failed ORUs can then be brought back

13
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,340
in for repair and/or return to the ground.

14
00:00:56,340 --> 00:00:58,910
Again ORU is Orbital Replacement Units.

15
00:00:58,910 --> 00:01:08,440
Those can be either a storage tank or controller
box, antenna, a pump, anything that has failed

16
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,690
and on the outside of the station and
they can quickly pull that in again.
