External cameras on the International Space Station captured views of a strengthening Hurricane Idalia at 11:35 a.m. EDT on Tuesday Aug. 29 2023 as the station flew 260 miles overhead. Idalia was located over the eastern Gulf of Mexico southwest of Florida at the time of the flyover as a Category 1 storm with winds of 85 miles an hour moving north toward an expected landfall around the Big Bend area of Florida on August 30 as a Category 3 hurricane or stronger that could produce a life-threatening storm surge according to the National Hurricane Center.

Following their six-month stay aboard the International Space Station, the members of NASA's SpaceX Crew-6 mission are safely back on Earth. NASA astronauts Stephen Bowen and Woody Hoburg and UAE (United Arab Emirates) astronaut Sultan Alneyadi will speak about their mission for the first time after returning to Earth on Sept. 4, answering questions from media and the public. Fellow crew member Andrey Fedyaev of Roscosmos is unable to participate in the news conference due to travel.
