NASA Establishes Coverage for Rocketeer Tracy C. Dyson, Crewmates Come Back

.NASA rocketeer Tracy C. Dyson, accompanied by Roscosmos cosmonauts Nikolai Chub and Oleg Kononenko, will deviate the International Spaceport Station aboard the Soyuz MS-25 space probe, and go back to The planet.Dyson, Chub, as well as Kononenko will certainly undock from the orbiting laboratory's Prichal element at 4:37 a.m. EDT Monday, Sept. 23, heading for a parachute-assisted landing at 8 a.m. (5 p.m. Kazakhstan time) on the steppe of Kazakhstan, southeast of the community of Dzhezkazgan.NASA's live insurance coverage of return and also related activities will flow on NASA+ and the agency's website. Learn how to stream NASA material through an assortment of systems, including social media.An adjustment of command ceremony likewise will certainly stream on NASA systems at 10:15 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 22. Kononenko will definitely surrender station demand to NASA rocketeer Suni Williams for Trip 72, which begins at that time of undocking.Stretching over 184 times in space, Dyson's goal consists of covering 2,944 tracks of the Earth and also a trip of 78 million miles. The Soyuz MS-25 space probe introduced March 23, and also got to the station March 25, along with Dyson, Roscosmos astronaut Oleg Novitskiy, as well as spaceflight attendee Harbour Vasilevskaya of Belarus. Novitskiy and Vasilevskaya were aboard the station for 12 times before coming back home along with NASA astronaut Loral O'Hara on April 6.Kononenko and Chub, who released with O'Hara to the station on the Soyuz MS-24 space probe last September, will come back after 374 times precede as well as a vacation of 158.6 thousand kilometers, spanning 5,984 tracks.Dyson devoted her fourth spaceflight aboard the terminal as an Expedition 70 and also 71 tour engineer, and also departs with Kononenko, accomplishing his 5th air travel in to room and accumulating an everlasting file 1,111 days in track, and Chub, that finished his 1st spaceflight.After coming back to The planet, the 3 crew members will fly on a helicopter coming from the touchdown site to the recuperation hosting city of Karaganda, Kazakhstan. Dyson will board a NASA aircraft as well as go back to Houston, while Kononenko and also Chub are going to leave for an instruction foundation in Star City, Russia.NASA's insurance coverage is as observes (perpetuity Eastern as well as conditional based on real-time operations):.Sunday, Sept. 22.10:15 a.m.-- Exploration 71/72 adjustment of order event begins on NASA+ and the company's site.Monday, Sept. 23.12:45 a.m.-- Hatch shutting protection begins on NASA+ and the organization's web site.1:05 a.m.-- Hatch closing.4 a.m.-- Undocking protection begins on NASA+ as well as the company's internet site.4:37 a.m.-- Undocking.6:45 a.m.-- Protection starts for deorbit burn, entry, and also touchdown on NASA+ as well as the firm's internet site.7:05 a.m.-- Deorbit melt.8 a.m.-- Landing.For much more than two decades, individuals have lived as well as worked consistently aboard the International Space Station, advancing scientific knowledge, as well as creating investigation discoveries that are certainly not possible in the world. The place is a critical testbed for NASA to know as well as get over the difficulties of long-duration spaceflight and to increase industrial possibilities in low The planet orbit. As office firms focus on supplying individual area transit companies as well as places as part of a sturdy reduced The planet track economic condition, NASA is concentrating more information on serious room goals to the Moon as part of Artemis to prepare for future human purposes to Mars.Find out more about International Space Station analysis and also functions 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 Space Center, Houston281-483-5111sandra.p.jones@nasa.gov.
