Int-Ball Drone Activated on the Space Station

Drone on the International Space Station

Designed by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, the Int-Ball is a bit larger than a softball, can float and maneuver by itself but also be controlled remotely, can take high resolution images and videos. Int-Ball was delivered to the ISS in early June and is designed to allow ground-control to increase the monitoring of ISS equipment and activities while decreasing time demands on human astronauts.
