JAXA has disclosed “Int-Ball Letter” Vol. 4 in which the latest video of the Kibo’s internal drone on the International Space Station is presented.


This time, we will report that JAXA Development Team introduced Int-Ball to Astronaut Norishige Kanai, who is going to have a long-duration stay on the International Space Station around December 2017.

The collaborative work of Astronaut Kanai, the Int-Ball Development Team, and the “Kibo” Mission Control Team will back up the mission of Astronaut Kanai and Int-Ball onboard the ISS.
