Engineers manage to reboost ISS after early Dragon abort

NASA and SpaceX have successfully raised the orbit of the International Space Station (ISS) with a 15-minute burn of the Draco thrusters located in the trunk of the Dragon freighter. The latest effort came after operators manually aborted a scheduled 19-minute, 22-second burn less than four minutes in when the Draco thruster fuel tanks failed to swap as planned This time all went well, said NASA, setting the stage for Soyuz crew swap operations later in 2025.
