Past by "All Emotions": Sophie Adenot's First Words After Her Return to Earth
Adenot spent 237 days in orbit and completed three spacewalks, setting a new European record before beginning a three-week recovery program.
- On Thursday, European Space Agency astronaut Sophie Adenot splashed down in the Pacific Ocean aboard the SpaceX Dragon capsule, concluding her Crew-12 mission from the International Space Station.
- Adenot set a record for the longest uninterrupted orbital stay by a European astronaut, spending 237 days in space while conducting around 200 experiments aboard the ISS.
- During her mission, she undertook three spacewalks and described the splashdown as "difficult," noting the capsule endured "a lot of waves for 25 minutes."
- Visibly weakened upon arrival in Germany, the astronaut joked, "Send me back to space, please! It was much easier up there," while ESA physicians assisted her recovery.
- Adenot must now complete an intensive 3-week recovery program in Cologne, while reflecting on the view from 400 km where she saw "no divisions, no borders" on Earth.
