  • The Southern California Wildfires — As Seen from Space by Marwa Eltagouri December 8
    The Southern California wildfires — as seen from space By Marwa Eltagouri December 8 This NASA Earth Observatory false-color image taken Dec. 5 shows the wildfires in Ventura County, Calif. (Joshua Stevens/NASA Earth Observatory) Thick plumes of smoke and bright flames of the wildfires ravaging Southern California this week can be seen from space. The state’s biggest active blaze is in Ventura County, where the Thomas Fire continued to grow Friday and burned more than 200 square miles and destroyed more than 400 buildings. Another 85 structures were damaged, the county fire department said. The fire started Monday evening and erupted overnight. The European Space Agency’s Sentinel-2 satellite on Tuesday captured a false-color image of the blaze based on observations of light visible and invisible to human eyes. The image depicts the active fires as orange, and the burn scar — the areas where the burning has made the ground less able to hold water and more likely to flood — as brown. Unburned vegetation is shown as green, and developed areas are gray. 1 A second, natural-color image of the region taken on the same day on NASA’s Terra satellite shows smoke from the fire billowing into the Pacific Ocean. This NASA Earth Observatory natural-color image taken Dec. 5 shows the wildfires in Ventura County, Calif. (Joshua Stevens/NASA Earth Observatory) Wildfires have ravaged Southern California for five days. The blazes continued Friday as new fires streamed through communities and injured several people. Astronaut Randy Bresnik of the NASA Expedition 52-53 crew tweeted Wednesday that he was asked if he could see the wildfires from space.

  • ISS Crew Returns to Earth with Olympic Torch (Update) 10 November 2013, by Maria Antonova
    ISS crew returns to Earth with Olympic torch (Update) 10 November 2013, by Maria Antonova wrapped during the descent, and an employee of Russia's space agency Roscosmos took it out of the packaging. "Here's the torch!" he said, presenting it to the cameras before handing it to veteran space traveller and Soyuz captain Yurchikhin, who sat smiling wrapped up in a blue blanket near the Soyuz. Yurchikhin took off his gloves and posed for pictures with the 1.8-kilogramme (four-pound) and nearly metre-long (three-foot-long) torch. After a few minutes, Nyberg and Parmitano, who had completed his first space voyage, were also extricated from the craft, which had landed on its side—something that frequently happens due to the In this image obtained from NASA TV, Cosmonauts Oleg drag of the parachute.

The trip completed the most ambitious leg of Russia's unparallelled torch relay in the run-up to the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi in February.

  • Vita Docking 31 July 2017
    Video: Vita docking 31 July 2017 Replay of the docking of the Soyuz MS-05 spacecraft to the International Space Station with ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli, NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik and Roscosmos commander Sergey Ryazansky. The astronauts were launched to Space Station on 28 July from Baikonur Cosmodrome. After orbiting Earth four times to catch up to the International Space Station, the car-sized spacecraft arrived at the Station six hours after launch. Paolo, Randy and Sergey will spend five months in space working and living on the International Space Station. The Vita mission is the tenth long-duration mission for an ESA astronaut and the third mission to the Station for Paolo Nespoli. Vita stands for Vitality, Innovation, Technology and Ability and was chosen by Italy's ASI space agency, which is providing the mission through a barter agreement with NASA. In Italian, "vita" means "life", reflecting the experiments that Paolo will run and the philosophical notion of living in outer space – one of the most inhospitable places for humans. Paolo's extensive scientific programme includes experiments in biology, human physiology as well as space environment monitoring, materials science and technology demonstrations. When not performing science, Paolo will work with his colleagues to maintain the Space Station and keep the orbital outpost running smoothly for the crew of six.

    INTERNATIONAL SPACE MEDICINE SUMMIT 2015 June 4–7, 2015 • Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy • Houston, Texas INTERNATIONAL SPACE MEDICINE SUMMIT 2015 June 4–7, 2015 • Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy • Houston, Texas About the Event The International Space Medicine Summit (ISMS) 2015 brings together the world’s leading physicians, space biomedical scientists, engineers, astronauts, cosmonauts and educators from the spacefaring nations for high- level discussions to identify not only necessary space medicine research goals but also ways to further enhance international cooperation and collaborative research. All International Space Station (ISS) partners will be represented at the summit. International cooperation is essential to the human exploration of space. ISMS 2015 will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) mission, the beginning of a relationship that now has become the foundation of the ISS. Extra-Vehicular Activity (EVA) has also played a major role in the assembly and maintenance of the ISS. ISMS 2015 celebrates the 50th anniversary of the world’s first EVA, performed by cosmonaut Alexei Leonov in March 1965. As we plan to return to the moon, and eventually land on Mars, international cooperation continues to play an essential role. There must be much more research to prevent and/or mitigate the medical, psychological and biomedical challenges spacefarers face. The ISS provides an excellent laboratory in which to conduct the required research. It is essential that the station be utilized to its fullest potential through cooperative studies and the sharing of equipment and instruments between the international partners. The sharing and application of the lessons learned from long-duration human spaceflight and analog research environments will not only lead to advances in technology and human knowledge to protect future space travelers but will also enhance life on Earth.
