Expedition 69 Astronaut Frank Rubio Talks with ABC's Good Morning America - Aug. 11, 2023

Aboard the International Space Station, Expedition 69
Flight Engineer Frank Rubio of NASA discussed life
and work aboard the orbital outpost during an in-flight
interview August 11 with ABC's "Good Morning
America". Rubio is in the midst of a record breaking
long-duration mission living and working aboard the
microgravity laboratory to advance scientific
knowledge and demonstrate new technologies for
future human and robotic exploration missions. Such
research benefits people on Earth and lays the
groundwork for future human exploration through the
agency's Artemis missions, which will send
astronauts to the Moon to prepare for future
expeditions to Mars. When Rubio returns to Earth on
September 27 he will have spent a total of 371 days in
space-the longest single spaceflight by a US
astronaut.
