After launching to the International Space
Station on March 2, 2023, NASA's SpaceX
Crew-6 mission is wrapping up its time in orbit,
with a return to Earth in early September 2023.
NASA astronauts Stephen Bowen and Woody
Hoburg, UAE (United Arab Emirates) astronaut
Sultan Alneyadi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut
Andrey Fedyaev spent their months on the
orbiting lab conducting scientific
investigations and technology demonstrations,
including running a student robotic challenge,
studying plant genetic adaptations to space,
and monitoring human health in microgravity to
prepare for exploration beyond low Earth orbit
and to benefit life on Earth.The astronauts also released Saskatchewan's
first satellite, which tests a new radiation
detection and protection system derived from
melanin.
