Cape Capeeral, Florida (AP) – NASA Space Pioneers Batch Wieelur and Sony Williams It is not the first to run late in space, and their mission for 9 months in any tolerance record.
But unprecedented on a quick journey that turned into such long distances.
The couple was launched last June on a new test trip Starlener crew capsuleWith the discovery that eight days disappear. by the time Blore with Spacex On Tuesday, they spent 286 days of the planet – 36 times longer than expected.
“If you look at it sporty, by a percentage of the original planned task, this is the largest percentage,” Ken Burzox, head of space operations in NASA.
Former astronaut, watch Bowersox the mission of his space station for a long time. There was with Don Pettit, who is currently working on the orbit laboratory, when Shuttle Columbia was separated while re -entering in 2003, killing all seven on board and heating the shuttle fleet for more than two years.
“The reasons were terrible because we stayed for a longer period in our mission,” said Paurzox, who was recorded for four months in more than five months.
Below is a look at some others who found themselves stuck in space – by choosing or not – along with some wonderful space light statistics.
The longest American distance
NASA Robo Rubio’s astronaut saw his mission doubled in length – from 6 to 12 months – after he took the Russian Soyuz capsule for Micromterte accent during her Russians to the space station and all its coolers leaked. An alternative capsule was launched to bring Rubio and his Russian colleagues in 2023. The astronaut was in the first year of NASA Scott Kelly. He recorded 340 days at the space station in 2015 and 2016.
The longest space flight in the world
Russian astronaut Valery Polakov spent 14 and a half months on the Mir satellite station in the mid -1990s. Volunteer for that. As a doctor, he wanted to notice changes in the human body and mind after a long period of weightlessness. Its standard for 437 days is still a world record. Polyakov died in 2022 at the age of 80.
The longest developed distance by a woman
Kristina Koukh from NASA occupies the title of 328 days space station in 2019 and 2020. During that same trip, she performed the first female spacecraft alongside Jessica Mir. Koch was currently appointed to the first Artemis crew in NASA, which will fly around the moon and return early next year.
Most experience in space
Last year, Rossi Oleg Kononinko became the first person to break 1,000 days in space over his career. By the time he returned from the space station last fall, he recorded 1111 incredible days of five space outlets – a total of more than three years. The former PEGGY Whitson is the most space pilot in America with 675 days on three long games in the stations and a short private journey for the Axiom space. Another Axiom crew is scheduled to lead to the space station later this spring. Because of her late home, Williams moved to second place with 608 days in space on three missions.
Female spacecraft records
Williams became the most experienced kind of credit in the world, thanks to her long mission. She ventured twice earlier this year to fix the stations and maintenance, which led to its total career in space to 62 hours. More than three satellite station missions, nine indifference, one lower than Whitson. But the space differences in Witzon were shorter, with a total of 60 hours.
Space Speak records in general
Retired Russian astronaut Anatoly Solovv holds the total record, with a total of 16 space about 80 hours. NASA travel champion, retired astronaut Michael Lopez-Iliggeria with 10 space differences for 67 hours.
The number of space travelers
The NASA’s outcome shows that 721 people flew into space, including tourists in short jumps and military pilots X-15. From this total, 102 women. The first person in space was Yuri Gagarin in the Soviet Union on April 12, 1961. The first pioneer of Mercury, Alan Shepard, followed on May 5, 1961. The first woman in space was the Soviet Union Valentina Terichkova in 1963. Sally Riv became the first American woman in space in 1983.
The number of current NASA astronauts
NASA is of 47 in the list of active astronauts. Twenty women. This does not include many astronauts who have moved to management roles in the space agency.
