The next astronaut launch of the International Space Station (ISS) is only in the room.
NASA targeted July 31 for launching next astronaut mission with spacex. Flight, called Crew-11, raise the roof a Falcon 9 rocket from launching complex-39a (LC-39A), in Cennedy Space Space to NASA in Florida, which sent Tripragon effort to Low orbit of the ground (Leo). Flight marks the sixth mission for effort, making it the most flown of crew of spacex worker.
Aboard Astronaut Zena Cardman (Crew-11 Commander) and Mike Fincke (Pilot) Kimiya Yui from Japanese Aerospace Epleguration Agency (Jaxa), and Oleg Platoov, in the Russian Space Agency Roscosmos. This is the first SpaceFlight for Cardman and Platonov, the second for Yui and fourth for the Finckke.
The Falcon is 9 first stage of Crew-11 support, designated B1094, launched two previous missions: Starlink 12-10 and, most recent, the private AX-4 Astronaut Mission On June 25. The B1094 is currently undergoing the final stages to launches July 31. It will be brought to the horizontal facility in the SPECEX next to a week’s second stage on a mission last Thursday (July 10).
Crew Dragon Testevor also experienced again since last launch – Crew-8, on March 2024 – and received some upgrades ahead of the crew-11 mission. The effort was the first-dragon crew to fly to updated Drogue 3.1 Parachute, first flown to SpaceX’s CRS-32 Cargo Dragon Mission. Upgrades include strong crowns of parachutes and a new packaging system designed for “more smooth inflation,” Stich said at night on Thursday.
“This dragon spacecraft has successfully flown 18 crews representing eight countries in space, starting with (in astronauts) Bob (Hurley) in 2020, if it Returned man’s capabilities In the United States the first time since the shuttle returns in July 2011, “Sarah Walker, Director of the Spacex in the Dragon Mission Management was explained.
Crew-11 are placed in the launch of “late July / early August” but accelerated in about 2 weeks to make a SpaceX Cargo Dragon as a part of the CRS-33 Station respeply mission. CRS-33 is the first-dragon cargo with a hardon to correctly designed to maintain the orbit of the Space Station, and mark a step in developing NASA and Spacex efforts to develop a US vehicle to overdue ISS At the end of its life at the end of 2030 or there.
Crew-11’s launch date is part of a stiffened traffic coreography in the space station in the next few months, which includes AX-4 growth in Russia 92 cargo flight. Axiom astronauts should leave ISS before launching crew-11, to follow at a time to departure crew-10. That’s clearing a port for the arrival of CRS-33 cargo CRS-33 dragon and make for future manipulation.
“Giving a lot of ways to keep the entire station is important as we continue to operate and get the most prevalent launch of NASA launch Johnson Space Center In Houston, said during Thursday. “We really look forward to showing the ability to (CRS-33) showing after we pass through Crew-11 and Crew-10 Handerover.”
Between now and at the end of the year, the issues also look forward to arrival at Northrop Gumman’s of-23 Strip Cargo Mission, Jaxa’s HTV-X Cargo Vehicles in Soyuz MS-28
Crew-11 members can be part of issuing issuance 73/74 and experience an important importance to their mission. The Nov. 2 mark 25 consecutive years that issues have strengthened a continuous presence of man. “That would be a great importance,” says Ken Bowersox, Associate Administrator with NASA space director. The occasion, he added, is “a good response to our commercial companions, our international companions and the entire team of NASA.”
Crew-11 window at 12:09 PM EDT (1609 GMT) on July 31 Mission restraints like Oboboard Consumables dictates that the spacecraft dock with the ISS of a Wiggle Room.
“That 40-hour limit is in place so we can preserve the margin for the downhill again,” Cardman explained in space that occurred in 40 hours and one second. “
A time stoppage will be placed in Crew-11 on the track to go to morners at about 3:00 PM EDT WORLD below.
“We have an experimental physics in the world an hour and then fix the toilet next time and after some collections of sciential sciential scientials myself next,” Cardman explained.
“Understanding how to live and work for long duration – going and stay – an interesting challenge, and I have the opportunity we do it – so we can do it for the higher durations of the moon“He said.” the International Space StationIn my perspective, a perfect critical step step while we think of more distant. “
NASA’s Artemis Program refers to extend human arrival back to the lunar face, where the space agency hopes to build a continuous presence, in part as a higher missions Mars.
Cardman, like the rest of the crew-11, eager for his mission ahead, and also for his first Spaceflight. “I think so many years what really happens. I know how much I feel veterans.
Fincekeke, logged in 382 days in space to the course of three missions, is the most experienced in Crew-11 Spacefarers.
“I look forward to seeing the expressions of Zena and Oleg during the time they were in space, because I remembered how it was acting, and how it was to be their joy,” he told them Luna.com.
His counsel for his fellow crew members: “It is very fun every day. Healing a toilet or doing a science of the world, or preparing for a GaandanOr talking to some kids at the ground school, it’s just a special time. “
