Stop and smell the flowers! Checking in on the Pak Choi that I've been growing on International Space Station. This is part of Veggie - an experiment studying crop production in microgravity that could help astronauts become more self-sufficient on long-duration missions to the Moon or Mars.

Slipped back into our spacesuits for the upcoming port relocation of SpaceX Crew Dragon Resilience on Monday. We'll take a short ride in Dragon to move from the Harmony forward port to the Harmony zenith port in order to make room for our new crewmates!

Had a visitor yesterday checking out SpaceX Crew Dragon Resilience. Making sure the capsule is in good shape for our return to Earth in a few weeks.

I’m convinced I have the best view in the galaxy! Out of all of the planets in the universe, Earth is by far my favorite. Looking forward to coming home in a week. #EarthDay #ConnectedByEarth

Research Crew-1 conducted aboard the International Space Station could help develop better fire safety codes, grow plants on future long-duration space missions, better understand muscle loss, develop new disease treatments, and more! go.nasa.gov/3aoWxGn

Coming home soon! It’s been a great mission with great teams both on the ground and on International Space Station. Here are some of my favorite memories from the past 6 and a half months on-orbit…
