Touch down in Düsseldorf! 🛬 I’ve arrived in Germany, ready to start 👩‍🚀astronaut training with the @esa next week. Some friends were at the airport to welcome me, along with a cute🚀sign their kids made for me.

Turns out that without a billionaire, "commercial" space is still very much a challenge. “We ran out of money after grossly underbidding. The estimate was $105 million but I was told that we had found a 30 million dollar private customer" parabolicarc.com/2022/07/14/…

Thursday's precise liftoff time has been established for #AtlasV to send #Starliner capsule on its journey to the @Space_Station. Based on latest calculations of when the station's orbital plane passes over the pad, launch will occur at 6:54:47 p.m. EDT (2254:47 UTC).

Safety first! Grateful for the Blue Origin team and their willingness to put us first. Can’t wait for the launch!

During our final vehicle check-outs, we observed one of New Shepard’s back-up systems was not meeting our expectations for performance. In an abundance of caution, we will be delaying the #NS21 launch originally scheduled for Friday. Stay tuned for further updates.

I'm genuinely excited for Boeing, NASA, ULA, and everyone who has worked so hard to bring Starliner back to the launch pad. Failure is painful. Facing adversity is painful. Hopefully, the payoff over the next week will make up for it all.

My first day at NASA I was told there is a particularly nasty office politics squabble everyone has to navigate: Star Wars or Star Trek. So I don’t say this lightly: May the 4th be with you.
