Luca Parmitano’s Volare begins
Highlights of launch preparations to liftoff and weightlessness. ESA
astronaut Luca Parmitano, Russian Soyuz commander Fyodor Yurchikhin and NASA
astronaut Karen Nyberg lifted off from Baikonur Cosmodrome on 28 May 2013.
All three will be part of the Station’s Expedition 36/37 crew.
Luca’s mission is named ‘Volare’ — ‘to fly’ in Italian — to symbolise the search for new frontiers and opportunities for discovery.
The spacecraft lifted off from Baikonur spaceport at 20:31:24 GMT and reached orbit nine minutes later. In under six hours while orbiting Earth four times
the Soyuz docked with the Rassvet module on the International Space Station.
I feel the joy on his face!

words cant describe what i would do to be up there, even just for a day… it would genuinely complete my life and im only 20
Meraviglioso vedere la gioia di Luca e colleghi durante il passaggio sulla ISS. Seguendovi vivo una emozione stupenda quando passate sopra Genova dove abito. Vi sono vicino,buon lavoro
