Mark Vande Hei of NASA takes a self-portrait on January 23, 2018 during an excursion to repair one of the ISS's robotic arms.

He was born in Japan on1968.

We wish him every success in life from all his fans and followers.

He started the ISS Astronaut Basic Training program in April 1999 and was certified as an astronaut in January 2001.

On Flight Day 4, NASA astronauts Mike Fossum and Ronald Garan performed a spacewalk to prepare the ISS and the JEM-PM for installation, during this Hoshide and fellow STS-124 Mission Specialist Greg Chamitoff robotically removed the module from Discovery's payload bay and moved it to its new home on the port the side of Node 2. While Behnken served as Joint Operations Commander for Crew Dragon’s Demo-2 mission, McArthur was back at SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne, CA training for her own Crew Dragon mission to the ISS.

The Earth and the International Space Station (ISS) can be seen reflected in Hoshide's helmet visor, along with fellow astronaut Sunita Williams of NASA, while the Sun shines brightly over his right shoulder. From 21 July 2014 to 29 July 2014 Hoshide commanded NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations Mission 18 (NEEMO 18) to the Aquarius Reef Base of the coast of Key Largo, Florida.

[12] On 5 September he and Williams went outside the station again, for a 6-hour, 28-minute spacewalk to replace the MBSU the two had prepared for replacement on the last spacewalk. [10], On 27 August 2012 Hoshide robotically captured and berthed JAXA's HTV-3 uncrewed cargo spacecraft,[11] on 30 August he ventured outside the ISS alongside Williams for his first spacewalk, over the eight hour, 17-minute spacewalk, the two astronauts prepared a Main Bus Switching Unit (MBSU) for replacement on a later spacewalk and switched some cables on the Russian Orbital Segment ahead of the launch and docking of the future Nauka laboratory module.

Mark Vande Hei, pictured here with his visor down, captures the Earth and the ISS in another selfie taken on January 23, 2018. Japanese astronaut Akihiko Hoshide will be the second JAXA astronaut to fly aboard SpaceX’s Crew Dragon following Soichi Noguchi on Crew-1.

Let us tell you the full story of him.

Ever since NASA's Buzz Aldrin took the first ever selfie in space in 1966, astronauts photographing themselves on spacewalks hundreds of miles above the Earth has become a rich tradition. He was born on December 28, 1968 in a small town of Japan. Our experts have gone through every news channel archive and online newspapers, but still, we lack real data. Although the water presented no immediate risk, Mission Control elected to end the EVA early. Required fields are marked *. You can. In total, astronauts have spent over 50 whole days walking on the outside of the space station, assembling and performing maintenance on the orbiting laboratory.
