What happens when astronauts return from a five-month mission in space?
NASA astronauts and their JAXA colleague share insights from their recent 146-day science mission aboard the International Space Station. This post-flight conference details the realities of living and working in orbit for nearly five months.
The Crew-10 mission involved NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, alongside JAXA astronaut Takuya Onishi. Returning to Earth on August 9, the team spent 146 days conducting scientific research aboard the International Space Station. Their journey covered approximately 62,795,205 million miles and included 2,368 complete orbits of our planet.
The post-flight news conference held at the Johnson Space Center in Houston serves as a debriefing on the mission's scientific achievements and the physical experience of long-duration spaceflight.
