The International Space Station Astronaut Don Pettit has shared an interesting timing of the Cru Dragon SpaceX spacecraft, which arrived at the space station on Sunday.
According to RCO News Agency, The film, which airs faster than the actual speed, shows the closer of the space capsule approaching its connection at the International Space Station (ISS) that rotates over the Earth about 2 miles. Petit has released a short copy and a long copy of the film and wrote: The four astronauts of this mission, Anne McCcal and Nichole Ayers of NASA, Takuya Onishi of Japanese Space Agency and Russian astronaut, Kirill Peskov SpaceX began in Florida.
Seeing the capsule approaching NASA’s Astronauts and Sony Williams was pleasing because they had to stay at the Space Station for a while, and the Crowe-2 arrival was to return to the ground.
A longer video
Wilmor and Williams both experienced astronauts arrived at the International Space Station in June with the first passenger flight of the Boeing START space. The two were supposed to stay in orbit only eight days, but the technical problems of the spacecraft made NASA cautious and bring the vehicle home empty. This made them look forward to planning the space station mission to find the easiest way to return home.
The “Rescue Mission” that some news reports talk about was never necessary; Because both astronauts could easily live and work with their colleagues at the International Space Station for a long time. But there was still a plan to bring them home.
In the end, NASA decided to continue the International Space Station Crew Rotary Program, but threw the Crowd-1 mission in September with only two astronauts instead of four ordinary astronauts. Extra Crowe-2 seats are used by Wilmor and Williams when they return to Earth in the coming days, after the Crowd-2 arrival.
A shorter video
Although it was not supposed to be, Wilmor and Williams’s mission is a rare example of astronauts’ journey to orbit in one spacecraft and returning to another spacecraft.
“We are ready to stay long, even if we intend to stay short,” Wilmor said in explaining the situation early. This is what we do on a manned space flight. This is the program of human space flights; this is the same; Planning for unknown and unexpected events.
