In January 2026, NASA ordered the first medical evacuation in the 25-year history of the International Space Station (ISS). The agency decided to bring the four-person SpaceX Crew-11 mission back to Earth several weeks ahead of schedule due to a "serious medical condition" affecting one unidentified astronaut.
Key Details of the 2026 Emergency Return
Mission: SpaceX Crew-11, which launched on August 1, 2025.
Returning Crew: NASA astronauts Zena Cardman (Commander) and Mike Fincke (Pilot), JAXA astronaut Kimiya Yui, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Platonov.
Timeline: Return is targeted for mid-January 2026 (no earlier than Thursday, January 15). The mission was originally slated to end in March 2026.
Medical Status: The affected astronaut is reportedly in stable condition. NASA emphasized this is a "controlled medical evacuation" rather than an "emergent" or "panic-driven" one, taken as a preventative measure because full diagnostic tools are unavailable in orbit.
Immediate Impacts:
A planned spacewalk by Cardman and Fincke for January 8, 2026, was abruptly canceled.
The station will temporarily operate with a reduced crew, led by NASA flight engineer Chris Williams, until the Crew-12 launch, which may be moved up from its original mid-February date.
