\n

\n A SpaceX capsule will soon ferry four astronauts to the International Space Station, bringing the orbiting laboratory back to full staff after a month of operating with a skeleton crew.\n <\/p>\n

\n The mission, called Crew-12, will lift off no earlier than 5:15 a.m. ET Friday from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.\n <\/p>\n

\n NASA, which contracts SpaceX for the astronauts\u2019 transport to and from the space station, had sought to expedite the Crew-12 launch due to the staffing situation. But the agency had to forgo two possible launch windows on Wednesday and Thursday because of unfavorable weather along the rocket\u2019s flight path.\n <\/p>\n

\n

\n The International Space Station has been operating with three people on board \u2014 well below the seven-person staff the space agency desires \u2014 since mid-January.\n <\/p>\n

\n The new launch comes after a previous SpaceX staffing mission, Crew-11, was forced to make an early return to Earth because of an undisclosed medical issue by an unidentified member.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cNASA was ready. The team responded quickly and professionally, as did the teams across the agency, working closely with our commercial partners and executed a very safe return,\u201d NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said during a news conference in January, adding that the astronaut was in stable condition. \u201cThis is exactly why we train, and this is NASA at its finest.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Upon Crew-11\u2019s splashdown return<\/a> off the coast of California, all four astronauts went to Scripps Memorial Hospital in La Jolla. The crew \u2014 which included NASA\u2019s Zena Cardman and Mike Fincke, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Kimiya Yui and Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Platonov of Russia \u2014 later appeared at a news conference.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cHow we handled everything all the way through, from nominal operations to this unforeseen operation, really bodes well for future exploration,\u201d Fincke said.\n <\/p>\n

\n
\n \"NASA<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n On board the Crew-12 mission will be NASA\u2019s Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway, European Space Agency astronaut Sophie Adenot and Russian cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev.\n <\/p>\n

\n NASA typically likes to have a direct handover between incoming and outgoing crews on the space station, a process that can bring staffing levels up to 11 as the arriving astronauts orient themselves on the laboratory with the help of the departing crew.\n <\/p>\n

\n Given Crew-11\u2019s emergency medical departure, the Crew-12 astronauts will get no such handover period. But Meir said she and her crewmates were able to exchange information with the Crew-11 astronauts on the ground.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cWe ran into them several times and had a little bit of a debrief so they could pass along some pertinent things,\u201d she said<\/a> during a February 8 news conference.\n <\/p>\n

\n The Crew-11 astronauts\u2019 premature departure left the football field-size space station with three remaining staff members: two Russian cosmonauts, Sergey Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikayev,<\/strong> as well as NASA astronaut Chris Williams, who traveled to the orbiting laboratory as part of a rideshare agreement with Roscosmos, NASA\u2019s Russian counterpart.\n <\/p>\n

\n The situation is less than ideal. NASA has routinely indicated that a robust crew presence on the space station is crucial for maximizing value and productivity on board the orbiting laboratory \u2014 which costs about $3 billion per year to operate and maintain.\n <\/p>\n

\n
\n \"The<\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n However, as Meir noted, before SpaceX began offering NASA routine trips to orbit for the space agency\u2019s astronauts, it was common for only three astronauts to helm the space station.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThe time of my last flight \u2014 around six, seven years ago \u2014 we did these indirect handovers,\u201d Meir said, referring to the process of conducting a handoff with new crewmates on the ground rather than in orbit. \u201cIt was more rare to have that direct handover where the other crew stayed on board before you arrived.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Still, temporarily having three crewmates aboard the station does limit the amount of research that can be carried out. And Isaacman has signaled that he considers novel research on the orbiting laboratory to be a priority.\n <\/p>\n

\n Such work, Isaacman has said, can help pave the way for new, commercial space stations that can replace the aging laboratory. NASA has long hoped that private-sector companies would build space stations in low-Earth orbit so that the space agency can focus on efforts to explore the deeper solar system.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cI, like a lot of space enthusiasts, dream of the day where we have multiple commercial space stations in low-Earth orbit,\u201d Isaacman said during a Senate confirmation hearing<\/a> in December. \u201cBut I think in order for that to be a financially viable model, we have to absolutely maximize the remaining life of the International Space Station \u2014 get the highest potential science and research to the space.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n During their roughly eight-month stay on the space station, the Crew-12 astronauts are slated to carry out an array of research projects, including ultrasound scans of their blood vessels to investigate changes in circulation and pharmaceutical research related to bacteria that cause pneumonia. The group will also conduct a simulated lunar landing \u2014 an effort to assess how abrupt changes in gravity affect the human body and cognition.\n <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
