Three NASA astronauts who recently returned from the International Space Station have declined to discuss a medical issue that occurred following landing.
Three NASA astronauts who recently returned from the International Space Station have said that they are in good health but have declined to discuss the medical issue that required them to be diverted to a hospital following their return to Earth.
Recommended Videos Speaking to the press on Friday, November 8, Barratt said that they would not be discussing the incident in detail due to medical privacy. “Spaceflight is still something we don’t fully understand. We’re finding things we didn’t expect sometimes, and this was one of those times,” he said.
The astronauts did discuss their experiences with adjusting to life on Earth after having been in space for 235 days. The readjustment is typically challenging, with issues such as decreased muscle mass and vision impairments frequently occurring during spaceflight.
