This is already the 348th correction of the ISS orbital altitude in the history of the station’s flight. This morning, October 19, 2023, the orbit of the International Space Station was adjusted to create the necessary ballistic conditions for the launch of the Progress MS-25 cargo ship. The press service of Roscosmos spoke about this. [caption id="attachment_71697" align="aligncenter" width="780"] MS-25 spacecraft[/caption] The engines of the Progress MS-24 cargo ship docked to the Zvezda service module of the Russian segment of the ISS, were turned on at 06:46 Moscow time and worked for 1029.9 seconds, producing an impulse of 1.5 m/s. After the maneuver, the average altitude of the ISS orbit increased by 2.8 km and amounted to 418.23 km above the Earth’s surface. ISS is being prepared for the launch of the Progress MS-25 spacecraft During the entire flight of the ISS, 348 corrections to the altitude of its orbit were carried out, 194 of them using the engines of the Progress spacecraft. The launch of the Progress MS-25 cargo ship from the Baikonur Cosmodrome using the Soyuz-2.1a launch vehicle is scheduled for December 1, 2023. Currently on board, the ISS is the crew of the 70th long-term expedition, which includes cosmonauts Oleg Kononenko, Nikolai Chub, and Konstantin Borisov, NASA astronauts Jasmine Moghbeli and Loral O'Hara, ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen and JAXA astronaut Satoshi Furukawa.

Dyson completed a six-month research mission aboard the International Space Station on Monday, returning to Earth with Roscosmos cosmonauts Oleg Kononenko and Nikolai Chub. The trio departed the space station aboard the Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft at 4:36 a.m. EDT Monday, Sept. 23, making a safe, parachute-assisted landing at 7:59 a.m. (4:59 p.m. Kazakhstan time), southeast of the remote town of Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan. While aboard the orbiting laboratory, Dyson conducted multiple scientific and technology activities including the operation of a 3D bioprinter to print cardiac tissue samples, which could advance technology for creating replacement organs and tissues for transplants on Earth. Dyson also participated in the crystallization of model proteins to evaluate the performance of hardware that could be used for pharmaceutical production and ran a program that used student-designed software to control the station’s free-flying robots, inspiring the next generation of innovators. Dyson launched on March 23 and arrived at the station March 25 alongside Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Novitskiy and spaceflight participant Marina Vasilevskaya of Belarus. Novitskiy and Vasilevskaya were aboard the station for 12 days before returning home with NASA astronaut Loral O’Hara on April 6. Spanning 184 days in space, Dyson’s third spaceflight covered 2,944 orbits of the Earth and a journey of 78 million miles as an Expedition 70/71 flight engineer. Dyson also conducted one spacewalk of 31 minutes, bringing her career total to 23 hours, 20 minutes on four spacewalks. Kononenko and Chub, who launched with O’Hara to the station on the Soyuz MS-24 spacecraft last September, spent 374 days in space on a trip of 158.6 million miles, spanning 5,984 orbits. Kononenko completed his fifth flight into space, accruing a record of 1,111 days in orbit, and Chub completed his first spaceflight. Following post-landing medical checks, the crew will return to the recovery staging city in Karaganda, Kazakhstan. Dyson will then board a NASA plane bound for the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.

Sombra da Lua - Astronautas observam sombra fantasmagórica da Lua percorrendo a Terra durante eclipse solar Os astronautas na Estação Espacial Internacional (ISS) tiveram uma visão impressionante durante o eclipse solar total na segunda-feira, quando a sombra da Lua atravessou a superfície do planeta. A perspectiva da ISS, em órbita baixa, ofereceu um panorama do quão rápido essa sombra se move. De acordo com a NASA, a sombra do eclipse viaja a cerca de 1.700 km/h no equador e até 8.000 km/h nos polos. The Exp 71 crew soared into the Moon’s shadow during the solar eclipse on Monday afternoon while working on cargo transfers, spacesuits, and science.

what’s in your inner space?

(your heart of “earth”)

when we look at the glory of the heavens we can almost see into the sacred Heart of God

(although His Heart & Spirit is here on earth desiring to dwell within our own)

He exists in the silence of the moon and in the True illumination of Light

although He is not the sun nor moon, of course, since He created these celestial “bodies” to work Together for the benefit of our garden planet

hopefully my writing has pointed you to this (its significance) as a humble “mirroring”

Expedition 69 Flight Engineers play chess with NASA mission controllersCredit NASA Jan. 16, 2024 RELEASE: 24-001 Four astronauts, including the current record holder for the longest single U.S. stay in space aboard the International Space Station, will make their first public appearance in Houston since returning to Earth. The crew also will be available for interviews before the event at 5 p.m. CST Thursday, Jan. 18, at Space Center Houston. Expedition 69 NASA astronauts Stephen Bowen, Woody Hoburg, and Frank Rubio, along with United Arab Emirates (UAE) astronaut Sultan Alneyadi, will be at NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston official visitor center to share accomplishments from their mission during a free, public event at 5:30 p.m. At 7 p.m., the crew, along NASA leadership, will help recognize key contributors to the mission’s success in an awards ceremony. Reporters may request an in-person interview no later than 12 p.m. Jan. 18 by emailing Dana Davis at dana.l.davis@nasa.gov.   Expedition 69 NASA’s SpaceX Crew-6 mission launched in March 2023 with Bowen, Hoburg, and Alneyadi, as well as Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev, on the sixth commercial crew rotation mission to the space station. The crew spent 186 days in orbit, traveled 78,875,292 miles, and completed 2,976 Earth orbits, splashing down off the coast of Jacksonville, Florida, on Sept. 4, 2023. This was Bowen’s fourth spaceflight and the first spaceflight for Hoburg, Alneyadi, and Fedyaev. The crew helped improve power systems for the space station through a series of spacewalks. In June 2023, Bowen completed his 10th career spacewalk, tying the U.S. record for number of spacewalks. Alneyadi also completed the first long-duration mission for a UAE astronaut. The Dragon crew was welcomed aboard the station by the international crew that flew on the Soyuz spacecraft and served on Expeditions 68 and 69. NASA astronaut Frank Rubio and Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev and Dmitri Petelin launched six months earlier, on the Soyuz MS-22 spacecraft in September 2022. The Soyuz crew spent a total of 371 days aboard the space station, traveled 157,412,306 statute miles, and completed 5,963 Earth orbits, landing in Kazakhstan aboard the Soyuz MS-23 spacecraft on Sept. 27, 2023. This was the second spaceflight for Prokopyev and Petelin. This was Rubio’s first spaceflight mission and it broke the U.S. record for a single spaceflight by an American. While aboard the station, the Expedition 69 crew contributed to hundreds of experiments and technology demonstrations, including conducting a student robotic challenge, studying plant genetic adaptations to space, and monitoring human health in microgravity to prepare for exploration beyond low Earth orbit and to benefit life on Earth. The crew released Saskatchewan’s first satellite, which tests a new radiation detection and protection system derived from Melanin that’s found in many organisms including humans.
