NASA Places Protection for Rocketeer Tracy C. Dyson, Crewmates Return

.NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson, alonged with Roscosmos cosmonauts Nikolai Chub and Oleg Kononenko, will deviate the International Space Station aboard the Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft, and also come back to Planet.Dyson, Chub, and Kononenko is going to undock coming from the orbiting lab's Prichal component at 4:37 a.m. EDT Monday, Sept. 23, going to a parachute-assisted touchdown at 8 a.m. (5 p.m. Kazakhstan time) on the steppe of Kazakhstan, southeast of the town of Dzhezkazgan.NASA's live coverage of return and relevant activities will definitely stream on NASA+ and the organization's web site. Know how to flow NASA information via an assortment of platforms, consisting of social networking sites.A change of command service likewise are going to stream on NASA systems at 10:15 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 22. Kononenko is going to surrender station demand to NASA rocketeer Suni Williams for Trip 72, which begins at the moment of undocking.Stretching over 184 days in space, Dyson's mission consists of dealing with 2,944 tracks of the Planet as well as an experience of 78 million kilometers. The Soyuz MS-25 space probe introduced March 23, as well as came to the station March 25, along with Dyson, Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Novitskiy, and also spaceflight participant Marina Vasilevskaya of Belarus. Novitskiy as well as Vasilevskaya were actually aboard the station for 12 days prior to returning home along with NASA rocketeer Loral O'Hara on April 6.Kononenko as well as Chub, that introduced along with O'Hara to the terminal on the Soyuz MS-24 spacecraft last September, will definitely come back after 374 times precede and an excursion of 158.6 million miles, covering 5,984 tracks.Dyson devoted her 4th spaceflight aboard the terminal as an Exploration 70 as well as 71 trip engineer, and leaves along with Kononenko, accomplishing his 5th flight in to space as well as accumulating an all-time record 1,111 times in track, and also Chub, who accomplished his very first spaceflight.After returning to The planet, the 3 staff members will soar on a chopper from the landing website to the rehabilitation staging area of Karaganda, Kazakhstan. Dyson will board a NASA plane and also return to Houston, while Kononenko and Chub will definitely depart for an instruction base in Celebrity Metropolitan area, Russia.NASA's insurance coverage is actually as follows (all times Eastern and also subject to change based on real-time functions):.Sunday, Sept. 22.10:15 a.m.-- Expedition 71/72 change of order event begins on NASA+ and the organization's internet site.Monday, Sept. 23.12:45 a.m.-- Hatch shutting protection starts on NASA+ as well as the company's site.1:05 a.m.-- Hatch closing.4 a.m.-- Undocking insurance coverage begins on NASA+ as well as the firm's web site.4:37 a.m.-- Undocking.6:45 a.m.-- Coverage starts for deorbit burn, admittance, and landing on NASA+ and also the agency's website.7:05 a.m.-- Deorbit melt.8 a.m.-- Landing.For much more than two decades, individuals have lived and operated continually aboard the International Space Station, progressing technology, and creating research study breakthroughs that are certainly not possible in the world. The place is a crucial testbed for NASA to understand as well as eliminate the problems of long-duration spaceflight and to extend commercial chances in reduced The planet orbit. As business firms focus on giving individual room transportation solutions and also places as portion of a sturdy reduced The planet orbit economic situation, NASA is centering a lot more information on profound space missions to the Moon as aspect of Artemis to prepare for future individual goals to Mars.Discover more about International Spaceport station research study as well as 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 Area Facility, Houston281-483-5111sandra.p.jones@nasa.gov.
