Multi-national flight controllers successfully connected a backup power channel on Saturday, 31 March to the European Space Agency's "Edoardo Amaldi" Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) cargo ship, enabling electricity to flow from the International Space Station to the ATV to set the stage for a reboost of the station while avoiding an early undocking of the resupply craft.
