""medical concern""
""Safely conducting our missions is our highest priority, and we are actively evaluating all options, including the possibility of an earlier end to Crew-11's mission. These are the situations NASA and our partners train for and prepare to execute safely.""
NASA postponed a scheduled spacewalk outside the International Space Station due to an undisclosed "medical concern" involving a crew member. The issue arose yesterday and led to the delay; the affected crew member is in stable condition. NASA is evaluating options including a possible earlier end to the Crew-11 mission and emphasized mission safety and preparedness. Crew-11 consists of Mike Fincke, Zena Cardman, Kimiya Yui, and Oleg Platonov. Crew-12 is scheduled no earlier than February 15, 2026. Fincke and Cardman had been planned to perform a six-and-a-half-hour EVA to route cables, install jumper cables, photograph hardware, and collect microorganism samples.
