Frank Rubio, NASA’s astronaut who spent the most time in space, shared his experiences!
NASA’s record-breaking astronaut Frank Rubio shared his 371 days away from home and even his planet with space enthusiasts. Having spent more than a year in microgravity conditions, the astronaut’s feet are now on the ground. Of course, he went through a process of adaptation and recovery when he returned home from space conditions. Nowadays, he shares his experiences with the curious.
He shared his experiences in an hour-long question and answer session. First, he talked about his crew and the international space station. Additionally, Frank Rubio said he will miss flying around the orbital facility in microgravity conditions.
Rubio said, “Swimming is so much fun, you feel like a little kid. It also makes for a tough practice environment because it’s so hard to keep them down while you’re trying to work on things. It’s a different challenge. But when you’re swimming, you feel like a 10-year-old kid.” ” said.
However, what NASA astronaut Frank Rubio misses most while on earth is completely different: Watching the blue planet from the space station. Rubio said the spectacular view of Earth offered by the special vantage point 250 miles above our planet.
To get the best view, astronauts often go to the space station’s Cupola, a module with seven windows. This window offers unobstructed views of Earth and beyond. At the same time, the crew had the opportunity to photograph the unique view of the blue planet. French astronaut Thomas Pesquet, for example, and captured incredible images from his two missions to the ISS.
Rubio’s space mission was only supposed to last six months. However, a problem occurred with the Soyuz spacecraft that brought it to the International Space Station (ISS). This led to the rescheduling of the return flight. This mishap made him go down in world history. He also enjoyed the unique view of Earth during this time.
