ATV Johannes Kepler‘s next reboost for the ISS is set for Thursday, 5 May. The single burn using the vessel’s Orbit Correction System (OCS – a set of thrusters) is planned for 13:20 CEST and should run 243 seconds. The boost should provide an increase in speed for the Station of around 0.6 m/second and increase its height by 1.04 km.
