- Description
In preparation for his second mission to the International Space Station, ESA astronaut Thomas Pesquet is training to be ready for launch. His second six-month mission is called Alpha and will see Thomas launch as part Crew-2 on the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft with NASA astronaut Megan Behnken and Shane Kimbrough and Japanese astronaut Aki Hoshide.
Here Thomas and Shane are training at Star City near Moscow, Russia, on the Russian segment of the International Space Station. A fire on the Station needs to be dealt with quickly. The three main scenarios astronauts train for, despite being very rare of course are: fire, depressurisation and toxic leak. They have CO2 and water extinguishers on board the International Space Station and of course fire detectors as well as making sure materials are fire resistant. In case of a leak they isolate it by module and repair as quickly as possible. As the Space Station is a closed environment toxic leaks are very serious. Everything is standby to react if needed: masks, filters, pumps, protection equipment and procedures are learnt by heart.
