The Science of NASA's SpaceX Crew-7 Mission

During their time on the station, Crew-7 conducted science experiments and technology demonstrations to benefit people on Earth and prepare humans for future space missions. Here's a look at some scientific milestones accomplished during their mission: https://go.nasa.gov/3UWWIAF

What is said in the film

Endurance ascends. An international crew destined for the International Space Station. We are incredibly happy and proud to be on board the space station. I’m very excited to work in this brilliant international team. Very excited to be here.

It's so hard to explain the feeling of seeing these guys here floating so easily. We've been training together for a while for this exact moment where we can continue the amazing work that's done on the International Space Station. Our mission is research and science. We have experiments mounted on the outside of the station that are looking at Earth, and each has different sensors measuring different things. We study our own bodies and how they react to space, to weightlessness, to radiation, to all the different things up here.

And that helps not only us go on further in future missions, but also helps for medical research back home. And then we study lots of different things as well, like different materials, combustion, all sorts of things that help us understand things back on Earth. Satoshi that cartridge looks perfect. Thank you. All right, copy thumbs up standby please Andy.

Looking forward to this first run. So the BioCells of you have this morning where all 12 donors and their goal is to try and figure out what the mechanism is behind bone loss in space. We knew the Earth was a special place, but when you come up here and see it in the way that we do, it's just like instantaneous evidence of all that. I had a chance to study some human brain cells to understand how brain cells age in space. I'm also working on really cool experiments that study Earth's climate.

In particular taking pictures of giant lightning strikes that shoot upwards from the top of thunderclouds out towards space. We're performing these experiments that have been put together by all these scientists around the world, which I think we all feel very honored to get to do that.
