ESA astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti floats in the International Space Station's US Destiny laboratory with a special patch presented to ISS crew members on reaching their 100th day in orbit. Together with NASA astronaut Terry Virts and Russian cosmonaut Anton Shkaplerov, Samantha launched to the ISS at 20:59 GMT on 24 November 2014 with the Soyuz TMA-15M spacecraft. The crew arrived at the orbital outpost some six hours later. Samantha’s mission is named ‘Futura’ to highlight the science and technology research she is running in weightlessness to help shape our future.
