Det n\u00e6ste vigtige skridt i Europas bemandede rumfartsprogram blev taget den 4. juli, da rumf\u00e6rgen for 115. gang lettede fra Florida. Om bord p\u00e5 Discovery var der en international bes\u00e6tning p\u00e5 syv personer, herunder ESA-astronauten Thomas Reiter, 48, fra Tyskland. Reiter bliver den f\u00f8rste europ\u00e6er, der skal bo i mange m\u00e5neder om bord p\u00e5 Den Internationale Rumstation (ISS).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Reiter, der har v\u00e6ret ESA-astronaut siden 1992, har allerede stor erfaring med livet i v\u00e6gtl\u00f8shed. For ti \u00e5r siden satte han den europ\u00e6iske rekord for l\u00e6ngste ophold i rummet under en 179 dages mission til den russiske rumstation Mir.<\/p>\n

Discovery skal efter planen dokke til ISS den 6. juli omkring kl. 17.00 CEST (16.00 BST). Ved ankomsten til Den Internationale Rumstation vil Reiter slutte sig til den nuv\u00e6rende bes\u00e6tning \u2013 den russiske kosmonaut Pavel Vinogradov og NASA-astronauten Jeffrey Williams. Det bliver f\u00f8rste gang siden maj 2003, at der er tre personer om bord p\u00e5 ISS.<\/p>\n

Reiter skal varetage rollen som flyingeni\u00f8r 2 for bes\u00e6tningen p\u00e5 ISS-ekspedition 13. Han vil v\u00e6re ansvarlig for stationens styring og kontrol, milj\u00f8kontrol og livsopretholdelsessystemer, bes\u00e6tningens sundhed og sikkerhed samt rumvandringer. Han bliver desuden den f\u00f8rste europ\u00e6er, der foretager en rumvandring fra ISS.<\/p>\n

Under sin mission, der g\u00e5r under navnet Astrolab, vil Reiter gennemf\u00f8re en r\u00e6kke europ\u00e6iske eksperimenter. Disse vil omfatte unders\u00f8gelser af den menneskelige krop, astronautpsykologi, mikrobiologi og str\u00e5ling. Discovery medbringer desuden en fryser udviklet af ESA samt et laboratorium til dyrkning af planter i rummet.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
