Jessica Watkins

Now we have heard that that mission is being pushed back because there was an oxygen leak on the Dragon capsule.

This mission is going to carry Jessica Watkins, Luke Delaney, Joss Kutryk of Canada, and Sergey Teterany...

Teteri...

Teteri...

I take risks.

A lot of people love Jessica Watkins rehearing her.

13 writes, Jessica's one of my favorite guests, but it's really hard to hear about another rape.

It really is, isn't it? Yeah, it got darks in Martin Crowe.

Jack Hathaway spoke to students in Chile on the 28th of September during the first direct contact any school in that nation had with the space station.

Their successors, the members of Crew 13, include Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, KJ-5 PPT, Joss Kutryk, KJ-5 PFU of the Canadian Space Agency, and Sergei Teteretnikov of Roscosmos, who have been living and working on the space station since Thursday, October 1st.

Meanwhile, ARIS and the U.S. Space Agency NASA have announced that they have renewed their partnership for another four years, bringing contact with the International Space Station to students worldwide.

ARIS has signed a new agreement with NASA that will run through 2030.

Uh, but right now and as always, we like to start off with a feel-good feature, and today's feel-good feature is indeed some Ebony excellence, uh, I will share from Black Enterprise.

NASA astronaut Jessica Watkins has made history as the first Black woman to command a crew into orbit, adding another milestone to her groundbreaking career in space exploration, The Guardian reports.

Watkins commanded NASA's SpaceX Crew-13 mission, which launched October 1st from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft.

The mission marks Watkins' second trip to the International Space Station.

Um, so this is a feel-good feature for obvious reasons.

Uh, anytime there's a new first around here, and there are often new firsts around here, uh, I think it is our duty to celebrate them and, of course, to share them with you.

So, uh, yeah, one more again, big shout-out to Jessica Watkins.

Keep going.

Patrick, you described the, the process of getting that science up there as like a game of Tetris, figuring out what's gonna go when and how it's going to fit.

Um, do you bring consideration as to what astronaut is there? I'm, I'm thinking, you know, Jessica Watkins just launched on Crew-13.

She's a geologist.

Um, do you pick experiments that she may be better off, um, performing, or, or are the astronauts expected to know what they're doing [laughs] when they're up there?

This definitely sounds like a movie, but it's not.

Earlier this month, 38-year-old commander Jessica Watkins became the first Black woman to lead a crew into orbit when her team launched from Florida and docked at the International Space Station, or ISS.

Little kids everywhere are gonna learn about her in classrooms and on NASA placemats at dinnertime.

Well, if they can see her under the mac and cheese that got everywhere.

They also plan to get involved with some space farming by experimenting with a plant growth system.

And per usual for a space mission, they will be studying the effects of space on their bodies while they're there.

Very cool, and congratulations to Commander Jessica Watkins.

And now it's time for This Week in History with a positive news story from the past.
