The NASA Docking System (NDS) is a spacecraft docking and berthing mechanism used on the International Space Station (ISS), the Orion spacecraft, and the Starliner. The NDS is NASA's implementation of the International Docking System Standard (IDSS), an international spacecraft docking standard promulgated by the International Space Station Multilateral Coordination Board. The international Low Impact Docking System (iLIDS) is the precursor to the NDS. NDS Block 1 was designed and built by The Boeing Company in Houston, TX, to meet the IDSS standards. Design qualification testing took place through January 2017.
Using NDS, NASA developed the International Docking Adapter (IDA) to provide two IDSS-compliant docking ports on the ISS. The IDAs were delivered to the ISS starting in 2016. Each of two existing Pressurized Mating Adapters has an IDA permanently attached, so the former PMA function is no longer available for visiting spacecraft. Since 2019, visiting spacecraft dock to the NDS ports on the IDAs. These include Crew Dragon, Cargo Dragon 2, and Boeing Starliner.
