Astronaut Tracy Dyson post-flight news conference

NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson discusses her six-month mission aboard the International Space Station and answers questions from the media. A Soyuz capsule carrying Dyson and her crewmates home landed safely at 7:59 a.m. EDT (1159 UTC), Monday, Sept. 23, 2024.

Dyson’s third spaceflight, spanning 184 days, covered 2,944 orbits of the Earth and a journey of 78 million miles (125.5 million km). While aboard the orbiting laboratory, Dyson conducted multiple scientific and technology activities.

For Crew Earth Observations, astronauts take pictures of Earth from space for research purposes. NASA astronauts Suni Williams (left) and Tracy C. Dyson (right) contribute by aiming handheld cameras from the space station’s cupola to photograph our planet.

Images help inform climate and environmental trends worldwide and provide real-time natural disaster assessments. More than four million photographs have been taken of Earth by astronauts from space.

While on orbit, Dyson conducted an array of experiments and technology demonstrations that contribute to advancements for humanity on Earth and the agency’s trajectory to the Moon and Mars.
