ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen at the Yuri Gagarin Cosmonaut Centre shortly before leaving to Baikonur, Kazakhstan, his last destination before heading to the International Space Station in the night of 2 September 2015.
Andreas’s mission only lasts ten days so his schedule is tightly packed with European experiments to test new technologies and operational techniques for future space missions. Andreas will drive three different rovers in two experiments from 400 km above while he orbits Earth.
