@NASA
Join us at 2:15am ET on Oct. 25 as we stream #Crew8 re-entry and splashdown. If you’re near the visibility path (all times Eastern), you may have a chance to see the spacecraft. Let us know if you spot it!

After months of conducting research in space, #Crew8 is trekking home. 🚀
Together, they worked on several microgravity experiments, including 3D printing tissues, testing immune changes, and studying brain organoids. Read up on the research:

@Space_Station
Welcome home, Crew-8! After traveling nearly 100 million miles around the Earth and 235 days in space, your journey is a reminder that no achievement in space—or on Earth—happens alone. Your dedication, resilience, and teamwork have brought us closer to new frontiers, and we couldn’t be prouder of what you’ve achieved. – Dana Weigel, Station Program Manager

Splashdown! NASA’s SpaceX Crew-8 Returns Safely to Earth
Jason Costa Posted on October 25, 2024
NASA astronauts Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, and Jeanette Epps, as well as Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin, splashed down safely in their SpaceX Dragon spacecraft off the coast of Pensacola, Florida, at 3:29 a.m. EDT, completing a seven-month science mission aboard the International Space Station.Teams on the SpaceX recovery ship, including two fast boats, are securing Dragon and ensuring the spacecraft is safe for recovery. As the fast boat teams complete their work, the recovery ship will move into position to hoist Dragon onto the main deck with the Crew-8 crew members inside. Once on the main deck, the crew will be taken out of the spacecraft and undergo medical checks before a short helicopter ride to board a plane for NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston.
NASA and SpaceX will hold a media teleconference later this morning at 5 a.m. EDT to discuss the Crew-8 mission and the crew’s return to Earth. NASA will stream live coverage of the teleconference on the agency’s YouTube channel. Participants include:
Richard Jones, deputy manager, NASA’s Commercial Crew Program
Bill Spetch, operations and integration manager, NASA’s International Space Station Program
William Gerstenmaier, vice president, Build & Flight Reliability, SpaceX

NASA Commercial Crew
@Commercial_Crew
Following NASA’s SpaceX Crew-8 mission’s safe splashdown and recovery off Florida’s coast early Friday morning, NASA astronauts Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, and Jeanette Epps, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin were taken to a local medical facility for additional evaluation. The crew exited the Dragon spacecraft onto a recovery ship for standard post-flight medical evaluations. Out of an abundance of caution, all crew members were flown to the facility together. NASA will provide additional information as it becomes available.

Latest from NASA, which said that one NASA astronaut on Crew-8 "experienced a medical issue" and is hospitalized in stable condition in Pensacola. The other three Crew-8 crew members have returned to Houston.

Don Pettit
@astro_Pettit
Science and Art, or Art and Science; related subjects where it really doesn’t matter which comes first. So I have access to a freezer kept at -95 degrees centigrade (-140 F). What would you do with such a freezer in space?
I decided to grow thin wafers of water ice for no more reason than I’m in space and I can. Plus I wanted to see how the freezing front behaves in 0g (without gravitational buoyancy, how does the freezing front push the tiny bubbles around). Here is one frame from a whole series. I photographed the ice (second photo) between crossed polarizers where I used a white (blank) laptop display as the illuminator/polarizer in conjunction with an analyzer (polarizing filter) I strategically packed in my bag of personal effects.
Science, or should I say Nature, has a way of presenting surprising beauty if one is willing to look.

NASA’s SpaceX Crew-8 Astronaut Returns to Houston
Mark Garcia Posted on October 26, 2024
After an overnight stay at Ascension Sacred Heart Pensacola in Florida, the NASA astronaut was released and returned to NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston Saturday. The crew member is in good health and will resume normal post-flight reconditioning with other crew members.
As part of NASA’s SpaceX Crew-8 mission, the astronaut was one of four crewmates who safely splashed down aboard their SpaceX Dragon spacecraft near Pensacola on Oct. 25. The crew members completed a 235-day mission, 232 days of which were spent aboard the International Space Station conducting scientific research.
To protect the crew member’s medical privacy, specific details on the individual’s condition and identity will not be shared.

Space Biology, Ultra-High-Res Camera Start Work Week on Station
Mark Garcia Posted on October 28, 2024
Space biology and an ultra-high-resolution camera demonstration topped the research schedule aboard the International Space Station at the beginning of the week. Spacesuit checks, cargo transfers, and lab maintenance tasks rounded out the day for the Expedition 72 crew.
New science experiments are due to be launched to the orbiting lab soon aboard the SpaceX Dragon cargo spacecraft. One of those experiments seeks to overcome space-caused immune dysfunction as well as prevent aging conditions on Earth. NASA Flight Engineer Don Pettit began configuring research hardware in the Kibo laboratory module on Monday to accommodate the upcoming investigation. Flight Engineer Butch Wilmore and Commander Suni Williams, both NASA astronauts, assisted Pettit setting up components inside Kibo to house the study’s biological samples.
Wilmore went on and tested the Sphere Camera-2 for its ability to capture live action, ultra-high-resolution imagery in microgravity. The footage and hardware will be returned to Earth to evaluate the space-hardened camera and a newer version for their potential to capture future planetary and mission photography. Williams swapped desiccants that absorb moisture inside a variety of science freezers ensuring the preservation of samples. The duo then joined each other at the end of the day for a conference with mission controllers on the ground.
NASA Flight Engineer Nick Hague began his shift with cargo duties inside the Northrop Grumman Cygnus spacecraft. Next, the two-time station visitor wore the Canadian Space Agency’s Bio-Monitor vest and headband filled with sensors to record his health data as he worked throughout the rest of the day. Afterward, Hague serviced life support hardware and other components on a spacesuit inside the Quest airlock.
Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexey Ovchinin, on his third station mission, worked in the Progress 89 cargo craft installing air ducts and transferring fluids to and from the Zvezda service module. Flight Engineer Aleksandr Gorbunov jogged on the Tranquility module’s treadmill after an equipment training session from Williams. Flight Engineer Ivan Vagner spent his day on inspection activities inside the aft end of Zvezda.
