These are portraits and views of Roscosmos cosmonaut Konstantin Borisov of Russia during training with SpaceX and NASA. Cosmonaut Borisov will serve as a flight engineer and mission specialist for NASA’s SpaceX Crew-7 mission—the agency’s seventh rotational mission to the International Space Station. 

Borisov will join NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli (Crew-7 commander), European Space Agency (ESA) astronaut Andreas Mogensen of Denmark (pilot), and astronaut Satoshi Furukawa from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), who will also serve as a mission specialist.

NASA and SpaceX are targeting no earlier than mid-August 2023 for the launch of Crew-7, aboard a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft and Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The four astronauts will join an expedition crew aboard the International Space Station.
