Sturckow is a veteran of four Space Shuttle missions. He flew on STS-88 and STS-105 as a pilot and STS-117 and STS-128 as a commander. All four missions docked with the International Space Station, making Sturckow one of two people to visit the station four times. Sturckow later was assigned to the Johnson Space Center as a CAPCOM. He left NASA in 2013 to become a pilot for Virgin Galactic.", "profile_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/frederick_w._st_image_20210522153643.jpeg", "wiki": "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_W._Sturckow", "last_flight": "2024-01-26T17:42:05Z", "first_flight": "1998-12-04T08:35:34Z" } }, { "id": 4717, "role": { "id": 31, "role": "Passenger", "priority": 7 }, "astronaut": { "id": 762, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/astronaut/762/?format=api", "name": "Christopher Huie", "type": { "id": 3, "name": "Private" }, "in_space": false, "time_in_space": "PT14M", "status": { "id": 1, "name": "Active" }, "agency": { "id": 1024, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/agencies/1024/?format=api", "name": "Virgin Galactic", "type": "Private" }, "date_of_birth": null, "date_of_death": null, "nationality": "American", "twitter": null, "instagram": null, "bio": "Aerospace engineer, senior manager of Virgin Galactic's Flight Sciences Engineering team.", "profile_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/christopher_hui_image_20230508161156.png", "wiki": null, "last_flight": "2023-05-25T16:23:00Z", "first_flight": "2023-05-25T16:23:00Z" } }, { "id": 4716, "role": { "id": 31, "role": "Passenger", "priority": 7 }, "astronaut": { "id": 761, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/astronaut/761/?format=api", "name": "Jamila Gilbert", "type": { "id": 3, "name": "Private" }, "in_space": false, "time_in_space": "PT14M", "status": { "id": 1, "name": "Active" }, "agency": { "id": 1024, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/agencies/1024/?format=api", "name": "Virgin Galactic", "type": "Private" }, "date_of_birth": null, "date_of_death": null, "nationality": "American", "twitter": null, "instagram": null, "bio": "Virgin Galactic internal communications lead", "profile_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/jamila_gilbert_image_20230508161019.png", "wiki": null, "last_flight": "2023-05-25T16:23:00Z", "first_flight": "2023-05-25T16:23:00Z" } }, { "id": 4718, "role": { "id": 31, "role": "Passenger", "priority": 7 }, "astronaut": { "id": 763, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/astronaut/763/?format=api", "name": "Luke Mays", "type": { "id": 3, "name": "Private" }, "in_space": false, "time_in_space": "PT14M", "status": { "id": 1, "name": "Active" }, "agency": { "id": 1024, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/agencies/1024/?format=api", "name": "Virgin Galactic", "type": "Private" }, "date_of_birth": null, "date_of_death": null, "nationality": "American", "twitter": null, "instagram": null, "bio": "Former NASA astronaut instructor, now astronaut instructor at Virgin Galactic.", "profile_image": "https://thespacedevs-prod.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/luke_mays_image_20230508161309.png", "wiki": null, "last_flight": "2023-05-25T16:23:00Z", "first_flight": "2023-05-25T16:23:00Z" } }, { "id": 4719, "role": { "id": 31, "role": "Passenger", "priority": 7 }, "astronaut": { "id": 680, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/astronaut/680/?format=api", "name": "Beth Moses", "type": { "id": 3, "name": "Private" }, "in_space": false, "time_in_space": "PT1H25M55S", "status": { "id": 1, "name": "Active" }, "agency": { "id": 1024, "url": "https://ll.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/agencies/1024/?format=api", "name": "Virgin Galactic", "type": "Private" }, "date_of_birth": "1980-05-30", "date_of_death": null, "nationality": "American", "twitter": null, "instagram": null, "bio": "Beth Moses is Chief Astronaut Instructor and Interiors Program Manager for Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo program, and is a commercial astronaut.
