NASA's SpaceX Crew-12 Discusses "Space Food" | International Space Station

NASA's SpaceX Crew-12 Discusses "Space Food" | International Space Station


NASA's SpaceX Crew-12 astronauts held a news conference at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, on October 15, 2026. This was a week after returning to Earth following more than seven months aboard the International Space Station. The crew reflected on their scientific research, daily life in space, and the importance of protecting Earth and of fostering unity among humanity.

On October 8, 2026, the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, carrying NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway, European Space Agency astronaut Sophie Adenot, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev of Russia, splashed down successfully off the coast of Los Angeles, California.

This completed 237 days at the International Space Station for the four-person crew. Meir has logged 440 total days in space, placing her in NASA’s Top 10 for cumulative days in space. The Crew-12 mission was the first time Hathaway and Adenot had been to space, while it was the second time for Fedyaev. The crew also conducted four spacewalks during their nearly eight-month mission.
