NASA's Crew-11 Mission Crew to Share Insights on Historic Space Station Expedition.
After 167 days in space, the crew of NASA's SpaceX Crew-11 is set to hold a live news conference at the Johnson Space Center in Houston on January 21st. The crew, consisting of US astronaut Zena Cardman, Japanese astronaut Kimiya Yui, Russian cosmonaut Oleg Platonov, and veteran NASA astronaut Mike Fincke, will share their experiences on the historic space station expedition.
The crew returned to Earth last week, splashing down off the coast of San Diego, before arriving in Houston for post-flight evaluations. The mission marked a significant milestone for NASA's Commercial Crew Program, which has delivered safe, reliable, and cost-effective transportation to and from the International Space Station (ISS) through a partnership with American private industry.
During their time aboard the ISS, the crew conducted hundreds of science experiments and technology demonstrations, traveling nearly 71 million miles and completing over 2,670 orbits around Earth. The mission's success paves the way for more people to access low Earth orbit and the space station, opening up new opportunities for scientific research, commercial ventures, and human exploration.
The news conference will be live-streamed on NASA's YouTube channel and will provide an opportunity for media representatives to ask questions about the crew's experiences on the ISS. Members of the public can also submit their questions using the hashtag #AskNASA or participate virtually.
