At the time I was a member of the Columbus Project team, where I had been working since 1999 in the areas of crew interfaces, maintainability, EVA/robotics interfaces and also to some extent NASA interfaces. In addition, I was one of a group of ESA astronauts training to operate the systems of the Training in the US Lab simulator Space Station, with the four of us being candidates for the first Permanent Crews with ESA participation. Several months passed between the initial flight idea and the official announcement by the Spanish Government, during which it became increasingly probable that I would have to train in Russia to operate the Soyuz TMA as Flight Engineer, learn how to execute experiments in the (as yet undefined) ESA Utilisation Programme, and therefore also hand over my Columbus duties. Our Training Division and the Gagarin Centre considered one year a reasonable time to devote to this, based on their experience with previous such projects (Cassiopée, Marco Polo and Odissea).

Trump to Call Commander of International Space Station 19 April 2017, by Vivian Salama
Trump to call commander of International Space Station 19 April 2017, by Vivian Salama have spent 535 days in space, the most time spent in space of any American astronaut. Astronaut Jeffrey Williams currently holds the record. The 57-year-old biochemist has also performed eight spacewalks, more than any other woman, and a ninth may be in the offing. Whitson's current stretch in space was extended to September because an empty seat will be available on a Russian Soyuz capsule for her return. Spicer said the call is partly intended to discuss the "importance of encouraging women to pursue In this Nov. 17, 2016 file-pool photo, U.S. astronaut careers" in STEM—science, education, technology Peggy Whitson, member of the main crew of the and math—fields. expedition to the International Space Station (ISS), gestures from a bus prior the launch of Soyuz MS-3 space ship at the Russian leased Baikonur Astronaut Kate Rubins and Trump's daughter, cosmodrome, Kazakhstan.

The European Columbus Space Laboratory Set to Reach ISS 3 December 2007
The European Columbus space laboratory set to reach ISS 3 December 2007 cornerstone of Europe’s contribution to this international endeavour. Once Columbus is launched, assembled to the Space Station and verified, ESA will become an active partner in the operations and utilization of mankind’s only permanent outpost in space. As the first European laboratory devoted to long- term research in space, Columbus will further expand the science capabilities of the ISS. In its interior, the Columbus laboratory will provide accommodation for experiments in the field of multidisciplinary research into biology, physiology, material science, fluid physics, technology, life science and education. In addition, its external payload facility hosts experiments and applications The Columbus laboratory is ESA's biggest contribution in the field of space science, Earth observation and to the International Space Station (ISS). Delivered to technology. ESA by EADS SPACE Transportation on 2 May 2006, this laboratory will provide internal payload Columbus will be transported into Earth orbit in the accommodation for various scientific experiments.

Peggy Whitson
PEGGY WHITSON THE LONGEST WOMAN TO STAY IN SPACE INSPIRING facts She holds so many records, for being the oldest woman aged 57: more days in space then any American astronaut of either gender ; more days in space then any other female in the world. The first woman to command the International space station; and most space walks of any female astronaut . She was a biochemist So she sent back as much data as she could She always requested more missions one of the reasons Whiston racked up so many space time. Is because as soon as she landed down from one mission, she requests another one. She was an accomplished space chef with her culinary experiments using freeze dried tortillas. The only 2 things she missed was non freeze dried pizzas and her husband who works on the ground at the Jonson space centre. Peggy Annette Whitson spent 665 days 22 SPACE hours 22 minutes and 36 seconds her selection was in 1996:NASA group . In total TIME EVAs 10 total EVA time 60 hours 21 minutes.

Her first space mission was in 2002, with an extended stay aboard the International space station as a member of expedition 5.Her second mission launched October 10,2007, as the first female commander of the ISS with expedition 16. she was on her third long-duration in space flight and was the commander of the International space station for expedition 51,before handing over to Foydor Yurchikhin on June 1st , 2017.In June 2017 , Whitson broke the record for the longest single space flight by a woman which had previously been held by Samantha Cristoforetti at 199 days, 16 hours.

ESA Astronaut Tim Peake Arrives in Baikonur on His Last Stop Before Space 1 December 2015
ESA astronaut Tim Peake arrives in Baikonur on his last stop before space 1 December 2015 working on weightless experiments and maintaining the Station as it circles Earth some 400 km up. Tim's Principia mission will see him run experiments for researchers from all over our planet, including trying to grow blood vessels and protein crystals, and using a furnace to melt and cool metal alloys as they float in midair. The two Tims have trained to perform spacewalks and are ready to work together if mission control decides to send them outside. All Soyuz astronauts enjoy a number of traditions before launch, including planting a tree, visiting a ESA astronaut Tim Peake, NASA astronaut Tim Kopra spaceflight museum and signing the door to their and Roscosmos commander Yuri Malenchenko arrived room in the Cosmonaut Hotel. at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan ahead of their launch to the International Space Station.

Set for launch on 15 December, the trio will visit their Soyuz TMA-19M spacecraft for the first time tomorrow. The run-up to launch includes preparing ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst took this image circling experiments, numerous medical checkups and Earth on the International Space Station during his six- physical training, as well as reviewing plans for the month Blue Dot mission in 2014. Alexander commented: six-hour flight to the Space Station. " History alive: Yuri Gagarin launched into space from this very place 53 years ago.
