These are views of NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli during her spacewalk and spacesuit training at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. Moghbeli will be the spacecraft commander of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-7 mission—the agency’s seventh rotational mission to the International Space Station. Moghbeli is a naval aviator, test pilot, and aerospace engineer. This will be the first spaceflight for Moghbeli, who became a NASA astronaut in 2017.
