NASA's Space to Ground: Pushing Boundaries | Week of Feb. 21, 2025
NASA's Space to Ground is your weekly update on what's happening aboard the International Space Station. NASA’s SpaceX Crew-9 members, including NASA astronauts Nick Hague, Suni Williams, and Butch Wilmore, as well as Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov of Russia joined each other on Wednesday, February 19, 2025, for a refresher session and practiced on a computer the procedures for reentering the Earth’s atmosphere aboard the SpaceX Dragon crew spacecraft. The quartet is planned to undock from the space station about a week after NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 mission arrives carrying NASA astronauts Anne McClain, Nichole Ayers, Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov of Russia, and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) Takuya Onishi. Crew-10’s four crew members are targeted to launch no earlier than March 12, 2025, from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
