Mayday in Orbit: NASA's First Emergency Space Medevac | The Race to Save the ISS Crew
In a rare move, NASA is cutting a mission aboard the International Space Station short after an astronaut had a medical issue. The space agency said the U.S.-Japanese-Russian crew of four will return to Earth in the coming days, earlier than planned. NASA canceled its first spacewalk of the year because of the health issue. The space agency did not identify the astronaut or the medical issue, citing patient privacy. The crew member is now stable.
