POT selected four astronauts to fly Moon on a mission Artemis II which will take off in November 2024. And among their names, there is one that will forever remain engraved: the name Christina Koch.
Born in Michigan, USA, at the age of 44, she will be the first woman to fly to our satellite on the first mission to that location in more than 50 years. It was his way of getting such a place of honor.
Christina Koch in history
Koch graduated from the North Carolina College of Science and Mathematics in 1997.
He received two bachelor’s degrees from North Carolina State University (electrical engineering and physics in 2001 and 2002 respectively), in addition to a master’s degree from the former.
Thanks to his training, he was able to work in the field of instrument development for space research and field engineering at the Laboratory of High Energy Astrophysics. POTthe so-called Goddard Space Flight Center.
She lived in Antarctica due to the fact that she became a research assistant for the US program on this continent.
After her tenure at this location (from 2004 to 2007), she returned to work as an electrical engineer in the space department of the Applied Physics Laboratory at Johns Hopkins University, where she contributed to the development of instruments for the Juno and Van Allen missions. probes.
Christina Hammock-Koch was chosen as an astronaut POT in 2013. She served as a flight engineer on the International Space Station (ISS) on Expeditions 59, 60, and 61. Koch set the record for the longest solo space flight by a woman, with a total duration of 328 days in space, and participated in the first all-female spacewalk.
She and her teammates have participated in hundreds of experiments in biology, earth sciences, human research, physical sciences, and technological development. Some of the scientific accomplishments of his mission include improving the Alpha magnetic spectrometer, which studies dark matter, growing protein crystals for pharmaceutical research, and testing 3D biological printers in microgravity.
He currently serves on a rotational basis as Assistant Director of Technical Integration at the Johnson Space Center. POT.
Flight
Artemis II will fly in November 2024 to Moon. In addition to Christina, Jeremy R. Hansen, Victor Glover and Reed Wiseman will fly.
Orion capsule to enter orbit Moon for a few days to test its correct functioning with the members inside. He would later return to Earth for scientists to confirm the success of the mission.
If everything turns out right, then in 2025 it is expected that Artemis III land on the moon so that the first astronauts can explore its surface.
