The daily rhythm of life aboard the International Space Station
In short: Experience the lived reality of Expedition 24. This compilation captures the crew's routine, from scientific research to high-stakes spacewalks, offering a window into human endurance in microgravity.
A multinational team comprising Doug "Wheels" Wheelock, Shannon Walker, Fyodor Yurchikhin, Tracy Caldwell Dyson, Mikhail Korniyenko, and Aleksandr Skvortsov made up Expedition 24. Their mission aboard the International Space Station focused on critical research into how space affects both humans and plants.
The team conducted complex experiments in fluid physics, observed metals solidifying, and studied semiconductor crystal growth. Beyond laboratory science, the crew performed multiple spacewalks throughout 2010 to maintain the station, documenting their daily lives and Earth views through extensive mission imagery.
