[edit] Summary

Description

JSC2006-E-08405 (13 March 2006) --- The Low-Impact Docking System, better knows as LIDS, is a prototype of a docking system that may be used on future spaceships. LIDs eliminates the high forces associated with docking, is compatible with berthing operations and is easily reconfigurable to support a wide range of vehicles and mating operations. James Lewis, project manager, is shown with the LIDS prototype.
