For a brief time on Tuesday, there were more people in Earthorbit than ever before with 17 people present on two different space stations.
With 11 people aboard the International Space Station until just a few hours ago, and three Chinese taikonauts arriving at the Chinese space station on Tuesday to join three other crewmembers already there, the number of people in Earth orbit reached 17.
The ISS has been unusually busy for the last eight days due to the presence of NASA’s second all-private Ax-2 crew, which reached the orbital outpost on May 22. For the last week so, Ax-2’s four members have been living and working alongside the seven crewmembers already aboard the ISS.
