ESA astronaut Alexander Gerst had the opportunity to revisit the Cosmonauts Alley, wh ere he planted a tree in 2014 as part of Expedition 40/41 to the International Space Station.

On 29 May, eight days before his second spaceflight, Alexander helped his crewmates, first-time flyers Sergei Prokopyev and Serena Auñón-Chancellor during the tree-planting ceremony.

The long-standing tradition began when Yuri Gagarin, the first person to orbit Earth, planted a poplar near the Cosmonaut Hotel in Baikonur in 1961. Yuri's tree, 57 years old and one of the largest, dominates the avenue.

All ESA astronauts launched from Baikonur have a tree in this avenue that leads to the banks of the Syr Darya river. Beyond this small oasis, an endless desert stretches to the horizon.

The trees face extreme weather and large temperature variations found in desert climates – some trees are doing better than others. During the year, there is virtually no rainfall in Baikonur.

Alexander took the chance to water his young poplar in the run-up to his second launch into space.

МОСКВА, 31 мая — РИА Новости. На ракету "Союз-ФГ", которой предстоит запустить 6 июня корабль "Союз МС-09" с экипажем к Международной космической станции, нанесли символику чемпионата мира по футболу-2018, фотографии ракеты опубликованы на сайте Центра подготовки космонавтов (ЦПК) имени Гагарина.

Спойлер

На станцию должны отправиться россиянин Сергей Прокопьев, немец Александр Герст и американка Серина Ауньон. В составе дублирующего экипажа – космонавт Роскосмоса Олег Кононенко, канадец Давид Сен-Жак и астронавт NASA Энн МакКлейн.
На ракету нанесены надпись на синем фоне с узорами и эмблема, символизирующая освоение космоса, русскую иконопись и любовь к футболу.

Герст выложил фотографии экипажа на фоне третьей ступени ракеты в своем аккаунте Twitter и обратился к сборной Германии с вопросом: "Что вы думаете о нашей специальной раскраске?".

Ранее российские ракеты уже окрашивали особенным образом перед масштабными событиями. Так, головной обтекатель ракеты "Союз-ФГ", под которым располагался корабль "Союз ТМА-11М", запущенный 7 ноября 2013 года, был украшен символами зимней Олимпиады в Сочи. Последняя запущенная к МКС в 2017 году ракета была украшена портретом прославленного советского конструктора Сергея Королева, а также надписью о его 110-летнем юбилее.

В честь 55-летия первого полета человека в космос на обтекатель ракеты "Союз-ФГ", был нанесен портрет Юрия Гагарина, выполненный в синем и белом цветах. Тогда, в 2016 году, к МКС запускали корабль "Союз ТМА-20М".

One station crew heads home, another preps for launch
June 2, 2018 | William Harwood

With three space station fliers heading home Sunday after a 168-day mission, three fresh crew members made final preparations for launch three days later to boost the lab's crew back to six in a rapid-fire rotation that will prevent any major interruption of research activity.

...

With the departure of Shkaplerov and his crewmates, Feustel, Arnold and Artemyev, launched to the station March 21 aboard the Soyuz MS-08 spacecraft, will have the lab to themselves for just five days before a fresh crew arrives.

Soyuz MS-09/55S commander Sergey Prokopyev, German flight engineer Alexander Gerst, representing the European Space Agency, and NASA physician-astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor are scheduled for launch fr om the Baikonur Cosmodrome, 250 miles southwest of Dzhezkazgan, at 7:12 a.m. (5:12 p.m. local time) Wednesday.

Climbing directly into the plane of the space station's orbit, the Soyuz will be released from its carrier rocket eight minutes and 45 seconds after liftoff. Over the next two days, Prokopyev and Gerst will monitor an automated rendezvous, catching up with the space station early Friday. They plan to dock at Rassvet around 9:07 a.m.

After a traditional video chat with friends and family back in Moscow, the new arrivals will be given a safety briefing before all six crew members get down to work.

Gerst spent 165 days aboard the station in 2014, but Prokopyev and Auñón-Chancellor will be making their first flights.

Auñón-Chancellor, a veteran flight surgeon, originally was assigned to a mission later this year, but she was moved up to the Soyuz MS-09 crew after one of its original crew members, astronaut Jeanette Epps, was suddenly bumped from the Prokopyev-Gerst crew in January.

NASA provided no explanation for the late crew swap, Epps had no public comment and Auñón-Chancellor would only say she planned to be ready for launch despite an accelerated training schedule and that she already was on good terms with her new crewmates.

"It's a relatively short amount of time from the crew assignment, but I've known these guys for a very long time," she said. "Alex and I were sel ected in the very same (astronaut) class and even from the beginning, when I started training in Russia, I'd also met Sergey. So, for us, in all honesty, this is like one big family. It was not uncomfortable at all, it was extremely smooth.

"I feel like I've been working with these guys forever," she added. "It's been very easy. ... Our families have gotten together several times. It's been a lot of fun."

Auñón-Chancellor came to NASA in 2006, working as a contract flight surgeon. She spent more than nine months in Star City supporting medical operations with space station crew members and participated in water survival training in Ukraine.

After selection as a NASA astronaut in 2009, she spent two months in Antarctica searching for meteorites as part of a scientific expedition and later served as an aquanaut aboard the Aquarius underwater laboratory.

In a satellite interview with CBS News during final training in Moscow shortly before departing for Baikonur, Auñón-Chancellor said she was well prepared and looking forward to launch.

"The Soyuz is a wonderfully robust and redundant vehicle," she said. "The great thing is the Russians have been flying a very long time, just like we have, and we've been flying together for a very long time. They do a great job here in Star City preparing an international crew ... to act in an operational environment and follow all the same rules and procedures to make sure that mission is successful."

As for the safety and reliability of the Russian ferry ship, "I have complete faith in the Soyuz," she said. "It is a wonderfully robust vehicle."

Gerst said he was excited about getting a second chance to fly in space.

"Everybody who's flown to space wants to go back," he said. "Being in space is such a special feeling, you can't even put it down to only one thing. It's not only the floating, it's not only the looking out at this beautiful planet, it's not only the perspective that we have, it's more knowing wh ere we are."

Before his first flight, he said, "I saw space as something very special, I thought this is a very special place to go to. When I was up there, I actually learned it was the opposite. Space is everywhere out there, the universe is gigantic, it's black and empty. Of course, there are quite a few interesting places to go, like moon and Mars, and we will go there, but most of it is empty."

"So the real special place, and that's what you realize in space, is actually our planet Earth," Gerst said. "Seeing that from the outside, seeing that from a step back, made me realize that. That was a very beautiful thought."

Auñón-Chancellor said she looked forward to conducting a variety of medical research to find out how she personally is affected by the rigors of the space environment.

"You hear all these stories about how people feel, the fluid shift they feel in their bodies, everything in those first few days of flight," she said. "So the first kind of big experiment is almost my own case study wh ere I look at myself and see how I react and maybe compare that with those of my colleagues."

She also is interested in studying vision changes in astronauts who spend long periods in weightlessness, a relatively recent discovery.

"I think we don't give the body enough credit for how well it does with very low-level chronic insults," she said. "What I mean by that is how well the body is with adapting to low-level radiation, levels of carbon dioxide that are maybe a little higher on station than they are on Earth, a change in nutrition, microgravity itself. The body does a fantastic job adapting, but you still see markers of that. So what markers are we missing?"

Gerst, who holds a Ph.D. in geophysics, also is a fan of biological research, especially an experiment designed to chart changes in brain structure before, during and after a long-duration space flight.

"When we're up there in the space station it's a little bit like what people suffer after having a stroke, which is certain regions of the brain are not working properly anymore," he said. "For us up there in space, that's the sense of balance, our orthostatic senses are not completely working anymore, the brain has to compensate for that."

It compensates by getting orientation cues fr om the eyes.

"That switch over is very similar to what people experience when they have a stroke and have to re-learn how to walk, to speak, all those things," Gerst said. "The processes are similar, and we hope to study them. ... For us, luckily, (those changes are) reversible, but we hope we can use that to develop a treatment for people on Earth."

Space station crew closes out 168-day mission
June 3, 2018 | William Harwood

STORY WRITTEN FOR CBS NEWS & USED WITH PERMISSION

A Russian cosmonaut, a NASA flight engineer and a Japanese physician-astronaut strapped into their Soyuz ferry ship early Sunday, undocked from the International Space Station and plunged back to Earth, landing on the steppe of Kazakhstan to close out a 168-day mission.
...

With the Soyuz MS-07 crew safely back on Earth, engineers 250 miles away at the Baikonur Cosmodrome will press ahead with plans to launch three fresh crew members to the space station Wednesday, a rapid-fire turnaround that will prevent any slowdown in science aboard the lab complex.

Soyuz MS-09/55S commander Sergey Prokopyev, German flight engineer Alexander Gerst and NASA astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor are scheduled for takeoff from Yuri Gagarin's launch pad at 7:12 a.m. Wednesday, the moment Earth's rotation carries the firing stand into the plane of the space station's orbit.

If all goes well, Prokopyev and Gerst will monitor an automated two-day rendezvous with the space station, docking at the Rassvet module around 9:07 a.m. Friday. Standing by to welcome them aboard will be Expedition 56 commander Drew Feustel, flight engineer Ricky Arnold and cosmonaut Oleg Artemyev, commander of the Soyuz MS-09/55S spacecraft that carried them into orbit March 21.
