Preparing for the Beyond mission
On 20 July 2019, our astronaut Luca Parmitano will be launched to the International Space Station from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.
He will fly to the Station alongside Russian Cosmonaut Alexander Skvortsov and US Astronaut Andrew Morgan in a Russian Soyuz MS-13 spacecraft.
Named ‘Beyond’, this is Luca’s second space mission since joining our Astronaut Corps in 2009.

Boa Sorte/Buona Fortuna! Luca Parmitano.
I would love to be an astronaut
Mom: do you want to be an astronaut?
Me: No
Mom: but you like space so much
Me: i want to be that guy that builds the rocket, and sends the astronauts in that rocket to space
Mom: visible confusion
I m so eager to know what went wrong with Vega this morning… my heart's with you
Thanks so much. Success
I heard that not all the astronauts went to space even if they spend many years in training thats kinda sad
#ESA this tempts me
My goal with life is to work for the ESA
That is so cool!
