It will be a busy week for Sunita Williams, a NASA Astronaut, as she is going to Space in July. Not only this, her work schedules also consist of two spacewalks and an extensive research project will be waiting for her, as she comes back from space.
Williams will be travelling to space, after a hiatus of six years. This time, she will be acting as a flight engineer and as soon as they reach Space, William will take up the role of commander of Expedition.
NASA agrees that it will be a tight schedule for Williams, who is going to space with her colleagues from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, which is in Kazakhstan.
"I'm just looking forward to seeing the full capability of the space station, it's an experiment, not only the things that we're doing inside but also all the engineering”, said Williams. She further affirmed that it will be a whole new experience for them, as she has never handled such a complex vehicle before.
Williams is not all nervous, as she said that it will be a life time opportunity for her to travel to the place where US and Russia dock their vehicles and they will also get an opportunity to walk on the space.
