  • Week Ends with Dragon Preps, Space Physics, and Human Research

    A green and red aurora streams across Earth’s horizon above the city lights of Europe in this photograph, which looks north across Italy toward Germany. The International Space Station was orbiting 262 miles above the Mediterranean Sea at approximately 10:02 p.m. local time when the image was captured.

    Expedition 74 wrapped up the week with more preparations for the upcoming launch and arrival of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 mission. The orbital trio also studied space physics and human research while resupplying and inventorying lab supplies and tools aboard the International Space Station.

  • Crew Studies Health, Earth Photography, and Works Dragon Preps

    The wintry landscape of New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut is seen from the International Space Station as it orbited 259 miles above the Atlantic coast of the United States. Temperatures in New York City ranged from a low of about 14 degrees Fahrenheit to a high of around 23 degrees when this photograph was taken.

    Biomedical research to promote astronaut health and Earth observations to understand the effects of natural catastrophes topped the science schedule aboard the International Space Station on Wednesday. The Expedition 74 trio is also gearing up for the arrival of the SpaceX Crew-12 mission while continuing lab maintenance for the upkeep of the orbiting lab.

  • Biomedical Research, CubeSat Deployments Top Crew Schedule

    This tranquil view from the International Space Station captures the Kibo laboratory module with its Exposed Facility, a portion of the station’s main solar arrays (right), and part of the Canadarm2 robotic arm (left). The photograph was taken during an orbital sunset as the station soared 270 miles above a cloudy Atlantic Ocean off the coast of South Africa.

    Biomedical research to keep crews healthy and CubeSat deployments for educational research topped the science schedule aboard the International Space Station on Tuesday. The Expedition 74 crew also focused on cargo swaps and life support maintenance throughout the day.
