NASA NEWS CONFERENCE WITH UPCOMING ISS CREW, July 15, 2019, JSC, 2:00 pm ET (NASA TV)

NASA will hold a news conference with three ISS crew members who are scheduled to launch on September 25, 2019 on Soyuz MS-15:

• Jessica Meir (NASA)
• Oleg Skripochka (Roscosmos)
• Hazzaa Ali Almansoori (United Arab Emirates)

Almansoori is a “spaceflight participant” (tourist) traveling pursuant to a contract between the UAE and Russia.  He will remain aboard the ISS only until October 3, returning with two crew members who arrived on ISS in March (NASA’s Nick Hague and Roscosmos’s Aleksey Ovchinin).

Meir and Skripochka will remain on ISS until the spring of 2020.

The news conference will air on NASA TV and NASA Live.
