Col. Nick Hague, an astronaut, is scheduled for a second mission to the International Space Station aboard a Soyuz MS-12, March 14, 2019, from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Hague, who is set to join the Expedition 59 crew, will conduct hundreds of research investigations and technology demonstrations to advance scientifi c knowledge of Earth, space, physical and biological sciences, according to NASA. On Oct. 11, 2018, Hague and his commander, Russian astronaut Alexey Ochinin, were forced to abort their mission when their rocket booster failed to detach once they reached zero gravity. “We (were) at the apex of our trajectory, and I’m staring out there at the curve of the Earth, and the darkness of space … you’re so close you can touch it,” Hague said. “And to have that ripped out of your hands, that’s devastating.” As they plummeted to Earth at 4,700 miles per hour, Hague’s years of Air Force training enabled his life-saving response. “The career I had leading up to that launch prepared me to respond to that situation,” Hague said. “It wasn’t my fi rst in-fl ight emergency – we had those when I was doing fl ight testing out at Edwards Air Force Base (California). I think what you realize as you gain these experiences is the best thing you can do in the situation to help yourself is maintain your cool and trust in your training.” Hague began training with NASA in 2013, and learned to handle maintenance activities, maintain the space station as a national laboratory for research and conduct space walks to fi x issues outside the station. A sizable amount of his training also included learning to fl y the Soyuz with Ochinin. “There’s this common understanding we have with each other … that even though I may be speaking broken Russian to him, and he’s
