The International Space Station is ready to receive a cargo delivery this week thanks to a successful moonwalk Monday.

Scott Kelly, a commander at the ISS, and Tim Kopra, a flight engineer, fixed a robot arm just two days ahead of when Russian Progress spacecraft was scheduled to dock with the station on a resupply flight. Kelly and Kopra's spacewalk optimized the station for receipt of the cargo, CBS News reported.

The Progress MS/62P cargo ship had already launched from Kazakhstan when Kelly and Kopra swiftly planned and executed the spacewalk. The capsule is expected early Wednesday morning.

"After quickly completing their primary objective for the spacewalk, Kelly and Kopra tackled several get-ahead tasks," NASA stated in a news release. "Kelly routed a second pair of cables in preparation for International Docking Adapter installment work to support U.S. commercial crew vehicles, continuing work he began during a November spacewalk. Kopra routed an Ethernet cable that ultimately will connect to a Russian laboratory module. They also retrieved tools that had been in a toolbox on the outside of the station, so they can be used for future work."

NBC News noted the ISS crewmembers now have one less task in between them and finally getting to see "Star Wars: the Force Awakens." They will be able to watch it on a 65-inch screen and a laser projector made specifically for the weightless environment.

Tim Peake mentioned the prospect of watching the anticipated movie before being ferried to the ISS while Kelly, a "Year in Space" participant, has been peppering his Twitter feed with Star Wars references.
