NASA seems to be calling it the "androgynous peripheral assembly system" nowadays (though boeing still uses "attach"). change the article name?

New docking systems are in design, the IDSS from NASA will be used on the ISS for a truly international standard docking system and will replace the PMAs currently used for shuttle docking. Should the IDSS passive and active rings be added here as a type of APAS? See Article http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/jscfeatures/articles/000000914.html See Article http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2008/01/04/220598/nasa-develops-new-docking-system-for-constellation.html

As a new Section, or Article with cross links, "Docking Adapters" I.E. ASTP APAS is an adapter PMA is an Adapter CDA is an adapter ATLAS is an adapter

4 Adapters and who knows how many other adapters Pressurized and Unpressurized exist? Hubble has a passive LIDS or SCM adapter ring installed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_Impact_Docking_System http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/hubble/servicing/SM4/main/SCRS_FS_HTML.html -- Darren Hensley, 10:39 18 Aug 2010 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.149.1.36 (talk) 15:51, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I always understood the point of this docking system was due to the fact that most systems had a clear male and female end (which are acceptable terms in electrics and other fields). In order for this mission to go further, a new docking system needed to be designed as neither the USA or USSR would accept being the female receiving side while the other docked in their port. I can't find reference though, does anyone have anything? Ticketjockey (talk) 15:12, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

APAS-75: Codeveloped and had hoped to become a docking standard

[edit]

Early on the Americans called it the International Rendezvous and Docking Mission (IRDM) Docking Mechanism. http://www.hq.nasa.gov/pao/History/SP-4209/ch6-5.htm#photo43 --Craigboy (talk) 02:33, 28 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
