Internationale Raumstation: Russische Kosmonauten kommen auf ISS an

Guardian: Debris from Russian anti-satellite test 'threatens interests of all nations', says US – video

Russia has blown up one of its own satellites, sending thousands of pieces of debris into space. The seven astronauts on the International Space Station were forced to take shelter in a transport capsule. 'Thanks for a crazy but well-coordinated day, we really appreciated all the situational awareness you gave us', Nasa astronaut Mark Vande Hei told Nasa headquarters. ‘Russia's dangerous and irresponsible behaviour jeopardises the long-term sustainability of outer space’, said US state department spokesman Ned Price. more...

guardian: ISS astronauts discuss evacuation after Russian test causes space debris – audio

A recording captured the moments International Space Station astronauts discussed putting on space suits and evacuating the station, after an anti-satellite missile test by Russia against one of its own targets generated a debris cloud. Astronauts talked through various scenarios with mission control – including the possibility of returning to Earth if the capsule they were sheltering in was hit by a piece of debris. mehr...

 

NASA's SpaceX Crew-3 Astronauts Arrive at the Space Station

NASA’s SpaceX Crew-3 Astronauts Launch to the Space Station

NASA: What You Need to Know about NASA’s SpaceX Crew-3 Mission

NASA and SpaceX once again are gearing up to launch astronauts on an American rocket and spacecraft from American soil to the International Space Station as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program. NASA’s SpaceX Crew-3 is the third crew rotation mission that will carry an international crew of four astronauts on a six-month science expedition to the microgravity laboratory.

We're inviting you to virtually join us for a Halloween launch! Our SpaceX Crew-3 mission is set to lift off on Sunday, Oct. 31, at 2:21 a.m. EDT (06:21 UTC) from Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Astronauts Raja Chari, Thomas Marshburn, and Kayla Barron of NASA will fly to the International Space Station alongside astronaut Matthias Maurer of ESA (European Space Agency).The Crew:

Raja Chari is commander of the Crew Dragon spacecraft and the Crew-3 mission. Chari is responsible for all phases of flight, from launch to re-entry. He also will serve as an Expedition 66 flight engineer aboard the station. This will be the first spaceflight for Chari, who was selected as a NASA astronaut candidate in 2017. He was born in Milwaukee, but considers Cedar Falls, Iowa, his hometown. He is a colonel in the U.S. Air Force and joins the mission with extensive experience as a test pilot. He has accumulated more than 2,500 hours of flight time in his career. Chari was also selected as a member of the Artemis Team and is now eligible for assignment to a future lunar mission.

Tom Marshburn is the pilot of the Crew Dragon spacecraft and second-in-command for the mission. He is responsible for spacecraft systems and performance. Once aboard station, he will serve as an Expedition 66 flight engineer,and is scheduled to assume command of station for Expedition 67. Marshburn is a Statesville, North Carolina, native who became an astronaut in 2004. Prior to serving in the astronaut corps, the medical doctor served as flight surgeon at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston and later became medical operations lead for the International Space Station. The Crew-3 mission will be his third visit to the space station on three different spacecraft and his second long-duration mission. Marshburn previously served as a crew member of STS-127 in 2009 flying aboard NASA’s Space Shuttle Endeavour, and Expedition 34/35, which concluded in 2013, using a Russian Soyuz spacecraft.

Kayla Barron is a mission specialist for Crew-3. As a mission specialist, she will work closely with the commander and pilot to monitor the spacecraft during the dynamic launch and re-entry phases of flight. Once aboard the station, she will become a flight engineer for Expedition 66. Barron was born in Pocatello, Idaho, but considers Richland, Washington, her hometown. She earned a bachelor’s degree in systems engineering from the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, in 2010, and a master’s degree in nuclear engineering from the University of Cambridge, in England, in 2011, as a Gates Cambridge Scholar. Lt. Cmdr. Barron earned her submarine warfare officer qualification and deployed three times while serving aboard the USS Maine. At the time of her selection as an astronaut candidate in 2017, she was serving as the flag aide to the superintendent of the U.S. Naval Academy. Crew-3 will be Barron’s first spaceflight.

Matthias Maurer also will be a mission specialist for Crew-3, working with the commander and pilot to monitor the spacecraft during the dynamic launch and re-entry phases of flight. He also will become a long-duration crew member aboard the space station. Like Chari and Barron, he will be making his first trip to space with the Crew-3 mission. Maurer comes from Sankt Wendel, in the German state of Saarland. Before becoming an astronaut, Maurer held a number of engineering and research roles, both in a university setting and at ESA. In 2016, Maurer spent 16 days on an undersea mission as part of a NASA’s Extreme Environment Mission Operations, or NEEMO, space analog.

SpaceX's Dragon 2 Spacecraft Undocking the Space Station to Earth

"If what is left of the earth is only the voices in your ear - reportage from space" by Reinhard Furrer(DD6CF) and Wolfgang Rathgeber (DK5KF)

The American spacecraft Challenger OV-99 took off on October 30, 1985 with a team of eight on a seven-day space flight. The German astronaut Reinhard Furrer was also there.During the preparatory phase, during the sensational start, during the flight and when returning to Earth, he spoke his spontaneous comments into a dictation machine and thus documented the adventure “live”. more....
