LIVE: Watch Japanese Cargo Ship Leave International Space Station

NASA Television will air live the departure of a Japanese cargo ship from the International Space Station at noon Wednesday, Sept 4

Expedition 36 Flight Engineer Karen Nyberg of NASA will use the station's robotic arm to detach the H-II Transport Vehicle (HTV)-4 from the space station's Harmony module This will wrap up a month's stay at the orbiting laboratory, during which time more than 3 5 tons of supplies and spare parts were unloaded from the vehicle onto the space station The departure frees up a space station docking port for the arrival of Orbital Sciences Corp 's Cygnus cargo vehicle in late September

NASA TV coverage will begin at 11 a m EDT with an expanded edition of "Space Station Live," featuring activities surrounding the HTV-4 departure

HTV-4 launched from the Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan on a Japanese H-IIB rocket Aug 3 It arrived at the space station Aug 9 and was installed on Harmony several hours after being grappled by Nyberg
