The spacecraft splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Pensacola, Florida today, following Satoshi\u2019s long-term stay in the International Space Station (ISS).\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elem_paragraph\">\n<p>\u2003During his second time of long-duration mission on the ISS, Satoshi implemented numerous space experiments which will contribute to our daily lives such as development of elemental technologies of creating artificial organs for regenerative medicine with his proficiency as a medical doctor under his mission theme of, &#8220;Seeking Solutions Only Available from Space&#8221;. He also demonstrated drone robot technologies to reduce working time of astronauts, and conducted various experiments and technological demonstrations with private sectors. Above all, he participated in outreach events with a wide range of next generation including \u201cAsian Try Zero-G\u201d to perform simple space experiments proposed by students globally, as well as Kibo Robot Programming Challenge. Overall, he has contributed to international space exploration, expansion of private sector utilization and education.\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elem_paragraph\">\n<p>\u2003After returning to Earth, I am expecting him to leverage his experience acquired on the ISS to help JAXA Astronaut YUI Kimiya and ONISHI Takuya who will be scheduled for their ISS long-duration missions from around next year as well as to JAXA Astronaut Candidates trainings. Moreover, I am confident that he will contribute to development of activities for Low Earth Orbit toward post-ISS era, technological advancement of international space exploration and enhancement of international cooperation.\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elem_paragraph\">\n<p>\u2003I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to our international partners, NASA, ESA, CSA, ROSCOSMOS, as well as the Japanese citizens and organizations that have provided us with precious support. Your continued support and assistance would be highly appreciated. Thank you.\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elem_paragraph\">\n<p>March 12, 2024<br \/>YAMAKAWA Hiroshi,<br \/>President<br \/>Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t<!-- \/area_content_main --><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/global.jaxa.jp\/press\/2024\/03\/20240312-1_e.html?rand=771667\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Return of Crew Dragon Spacecraft (Crew-7) with JAXA Astronaut FURUKAWA Satoshi Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) \u2003The Crew Dragon spacecraft (Crew-7) has safely returned to Earth with JAXA Astronaut FURUKAWA&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":771669,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-778787","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-japan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/778787","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=778787"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/778787\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/771669"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=778787"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=778787"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/spaceweekly.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=778787"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
