NASA astronauts aboard the space station captured stunning views of auroras, lunar crescents, red sprites, plant studies, vital climate and resupply missions.

Nasa astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, launched on June 5 aboard Boeing's new Starliner crew capsule, marked six months aboard the International Space Station on Thursday, with two months remaining.

Astronaut Sunita Williams recently tested the Astrobee, a robotic flyer which is designed to help humans perform daily chores in space. NASA shared a picture of the astronaut.

Sunita Williams, an astronaut of Indian heritage, recently fascinated students during an online interaction arranged by the Sunita Williams Elementary School in Needham, Massachusetts, which is named in her honor.

Sunita Williams tested Astrobee, a new robot on the International Space Station. Astrobee uses gecko-like pads to grab objects. It can fix satellites and remove space junk. This technology may make space travel safer and cheaper.

This demonstration involved monitoring the Astrobee as it performed docking maneuvers, showcasing its potential for capturing orbital debris and servicing satellites in space.
