Starliner astronauts’ replacement crew arrive at International Space Station
The 10 Dragon Capsule crew caught with the International Space Station and moved to a capsule for the textbook early on Sunday, where four new crew members brought to the laboratory and cleared the road to Starliner’s astronauts to return to Earth After nearly 300 days in space.
It is close to the back and below, the dragon crew was launched, on Friday evening, from the Kennedy Space Center, at an altitude of 300 feet directly under the station before flying up to 720 feet before the outpost directly. From there, it slides directly to the headquarters at the Harmony Modele front port at 12:04 am EST.
Then the mechanisms of the capsule pulled into the atmosphere for a tightly closed structural seal. After standard leakage tests and secret communications, the crew opened the dragon opening forward at 1:35 am and floats at the space station.
The crew commander 10 Ann McLean, a colonel in the army and a former combat helicopter, told aviation monitors that she and her colleagues from her posts had a “wonderful flight” from the launch platform to the space station, adding, “I cannot tell you the tremendous joy of our crew when we looked at the window and saw the space station for the first time.”

“Let me tell you, this is an amazing journey, you can barely put it in words,” she said. “The ride on Falcon 9, is about the ground in the last two days, it has been incredible at all … Thank you very much.”
“Thank you for Spacex for the wonderful ride here,” said Co-Pap Nichole Ayers, Air Force and F-22 RapTor. “As a rising (space), that was one of the most amazing things I did ever. I can’t wait to work here.”
McLean, Aires, Japanese astronaut Takoya Unishi and Russian astronauts Kirill Peskov – both of whom are veteran commercial airlines pilots – they replace the commander 9 of the crew Nick The Hague, and Alexander Gorbonov spacecraft, the driver of Starlener Barry Poach Wilmor, Sonita Williams.
Three other crew members, Alexei Ovchinin, Ivan Wagner and NASA Partie Pitto, were launched to the station last September on a Russian virtue vehicle. They are scheduled to return to Earth next month.

Willore and Williams were launched on June 5 on the first experimental test flight of a pioneering ship Raed Raed Raed Starliner in Boeing. It was originally expected that the journey would last for about eight days.
But during the Rendzvous with the space station, Starliner suffered problems in the payment system, and finally excluded the crew on the Boeing spacecraft.
Instead, astronauts were told to stay on the station while Starlener returned to Earth alone. Then NASA was shocked by astronauts from the next station’s flight – crew 9 – editing two seats for use by Wilmor and Williams.
When The Hague and Jourbunov arrived at the station, Willym and Williams joined them to become part of a 9 -month -old crew.
Now that Crew 10 arrived, Hague, Gorbunov, Wilmore and Williams will help identify their alternatives to the space station operations before canceling the ground and returning to Earth next week with spraying it in the Gulf near the Florida coast.

In Landing, Wilmore and Williams have registered nearly 290 days in space since its launch last June. Although it is a long journey of any standard, it is still less than the US record for one-371 days-which the astronaut Frank Rubio placed in 2022-23.
Ironically, Rubio’s record was the result of another extended task, as this is a task as a result of a large cooling liquid in the Russian Soyuz that he launched on board. The Russians decided not to drop the crew on the original spacecraft and fired an alternative instead.
Rubio ended up spending more than a full year in space, twice as long as he originally expected.
Looking at the former Williams stay on the space station, it will move to the second rank in the list of the most experienced American astronauts with about 570 days in space in general, depending on the actual launch date. Only former PEGGY Whitson has more time among American astronauts: 675 days on four trips.
