RECORD BROKEN! Today the GUSTO mission broke the record for the longest flight of a heavy-lift, long-duration scientific balloon of its size! The previous record was set by the SuperTIGER mission in 2012 at 55 days, 1 hour, and 34 minutes.

When Northrop Grumman’s Antares rocket heads to space on Nov. 6, its precious cargo will be aboard the Cygnus spacecraft S.S. Sally Ride, named after the first American woman in space. 🧵
In this softly colored, vintage photograph, astronaut Sally Ride sits at a control panel in the space shuttle, with sunlight streaming across her face and body from the shuttle windows. She has short, curly brown hair and wears a navy polo and light blue astronaut pants, as well as a watch and headset. The panel in front of her is covered with switches and knobs and a binder is open in front of her.
