A C17 transport aircraft landed at a military airport here, from which a truck covered with a white tarp and bearing the Canadian Space Agency logo emerged, with small letters below reading: "Canadaarm3."

The "Canada-3" robotic arm, manufactured ahead of schedule for the HALO (Habitation and Logistics Outpost) module, which is the first part of the Artemis program's Gateway space station, had arrived at the Texas assembly base.

PPE (Power and Propulsion Element), provides propulsion and 60KW of power, manufactured by America's MAXAR company;

HALO (Habitation and Logistics Outpost cabin), along with I-HAB, provides space to sustain 4 people in 8 cubic meters, manufactured by Northrop Grumman;

I-HAB (International Habitation Module), manufactured by the European Space Agency;
