NASA has announced that it is considering the early return to Earth of the crew from the International Space Station (ISS) due to medical issues of an astronaut, whose name has not been disclosed. This decision was communicated after NASA canceled a spacewalk scheduled for today, in which astronauts Mike Fincke and Zena Cardman were to participate. NASA's spokesperson emphasized that the safety of missions is the top priority and that the agency is evaluating all options, including the early termination of the Crew-11 mission. It was also mentioned that the ISS only has basic medical equipment, which complicates the management of medical issues. NASA will provide further updates in the next 24 hours.
