Am 28. Mai 2013 wird das Raumschiff Sojus TMA-09M mit den Astronauten Fjodor Jurtschichin (Russland/Roskosmos), Karen Nyberg (USA/NASA) und Luca Parmitano (Italien/ESA) in Baikonur/Kasachstan zur Internationalen Raumstation (ISS) starten, um dort die ISS-Expedition 36-Crew bestehend aus Kommandant Pawel Winogradow (Russland/Roskosmos), Chris Cassidy (USA/NASA) und Alexander Missurkin (Russland/Roskosmos) zu ergänzen. In der Nacht zum Dienstag waren die Astronauten der ISS-Expedition 34/ISS-Expedition 35 Chris Hadfield (Kanada/CSA), Tom Marshburn (USA/NASA) und Roman Romanenko (Roskosmos/Russland) mit ihrem Raumschiff Sojus TMA-07M sicher zur Erde zurückgekehrt. Hier sind einige Bilder, die Nyberg und Parmitano bisher über Twitter (@AstroKarenN und @astro_luca) gepostet haben. Die Bilder zeigen Jurtschichin, Nyberg und Parmitano in Star City (in der Nähe der Stadt Schtscholkowo nordöstlich von Moskau in Russland), wo sie sich für ihre sechsmonatige Mission auf der ISS vorbereiten. In Star City (Swjosdny Gorodok) befindet sich das Ausbildungszentrum der russischen (und früher sowjetischen) Kosmonauten, das Juri-Gagarin-Kosmonautentrainingszentrum. Seit den 1960er-Jahren werden hier alle Kosmonauten auf ihre Flüge ins All, z. B. zur Raumstation ISS, vorbereitet.
