Paris, Sep 3 (Ians) European Space Agency’s astronaut Andreas Mogensen is all set to study how light and sleep affect the body’s rhythm in space, the agency has announced.
Mogensen, who is part of the NASA-SpaceX Crew-7 mission, flew to the International Space Station aboard the SpaceX Crew Dragon, last week. This is Andreas’s second mission to Iss and first long-duration mission on the orbital lab, where he will work and live for half a year as part of Expeditions 69 and 70.
Andreas will run several experiments to better understand how astronauts sleep in space and how to support astronauts’ mental health with virtual reality videos of calming environments.
As per Esa, the human body’s internal rhythm or circadian rhythm is described “as the physical, mental and behavioural changes our bodies undergo over a period of about 24 hours. Our internal clock is linked to the body’s core temperature,...

Washington, Aug 27 (Ians) An international crew of four, representing four countries, was on its way to the International Space Station (Iss). The space agency’s SpaceX Crew-7 mission is the seventh commercial crew rotation mission for NASA.
A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched the Dragon spacecraft into orbit from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, carrying NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli, Esa (European Space Agency) astronaut Andreas Mogensen, Jaxa (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Satoshi Furukawa, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Konstantin Borisov, for a science expedition aboard the orbital laboratory.
NASA Administrator Bill Nelson said late on Saturday that the crew will conduct more than 200 science experiments and technology demonstrations to prepare for missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond, all while benefiting humanity on Earth.
The Dragon spacecraft was set to dock autonomously to the space-facing port of the station’s Harmony module on Sunday evening.

Washington, Aug 4 (Ians) A group of four astronauts is set to fly to the International Space Station (Iss) on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket aboard the company’s Dragon spacecraft on August 25.
NASA’s SpaceX Crew-7 mission to the International Space Station is set to depart at 3.49 am Edt (1.19 pm India time) on Friday (August 25).
Additional time was required for teams to complete pad readiness after SpaceX’s recent Falcon Heavy mission lifted off from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the US space agency said in a statement.
The adjustment also takes advantage of consecutive launch opportunities and deconflicts the station’s cargo spacecraft traffic schedule.
