The Soyuz MS-25 space capsule introduced March 23, and also arrived at the terminal March 25, with Dyson, Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Novitskiy, as well as spaceflight individual Port Vasilevskaya of Belarus. Novitskiy and Vasilevskaya were actually aboard the station for 12 times just before coming back home with NASA rocketeer Loral O'Hara on April 6.Kononenko and Chub, who launched with O'Hara to the terminal on the Soyuz MS-24 space capsule final September, will come back after 374 days precede and also a trip of 158.6 million miles, reaching 5,984 tracks.Dyson spent her fourth spaceflight aboard the station as a Trip 70 as well as 71 air travel designer, as well as departs along with Kononenko, completing his 5th trip into area as well as accumulating an enduring report 1,111 days in track, as well as Chub, who completed his initial spaceflight.After returning to The planet, the 3 team members are going to soar on a helicopter coming from the landing internet site to the recuperation hosting area of Karaganda, Kazakhstan.

The station is an essential testbed for NASA to comprehend and conquer the difficulties of long-duration spaceflight and to increase office chances in low Earth track. As commercial companies pay attention to delivering human space transit solutions and also places as component of a durable low Earth orbit economic condition, NASA is focusing extra resources on profound room purposes to the Moon as part of Artemis in preparation for potential individual purposes to Mars.Find out more regarding International Spaceport station investigation and procedures at:.https://www.nasa.gov/station.- end-.Josh Finch/ Claire O'SheaHeadquarters, Washington202-358-1100joshua.a.finch@nasa.gov/ claire.a.o'shea@nasa.gov.Sandra JonesJohnson Room Facility, Houston281-483-5111sandra.p.jones@nasa.gov.
