What Does UBM Stand For?
UBM stands for Unpressurized Berthing Mechanism
The Unpressurized Berthing Mechanism (UBM) is a specialized system designed to facilitate the safe and efficient docking of spacecraft in environments where pressure control is not required. It enables the connection of vehicles in unpressurized conditions, allowing for the transfer of crew, cargo, and resources between vessels in space. The UBM is essential for missions involving space stations and other spacecraft, ensuring operational flexibility and enhancing mission capabilities.
