Two of ESA's newest astronauts now have flight assignments. ESA announced Wednesday that Sophie Adenot and Raphaël Liégeois will fly on separate missions to the ISS, with Adenot flying in early 2026 and Liégeois later that year. Adenot and Liégeois are two of five members of ESA's newest astronaut class, which graduated from basic training last month. ESA said that it expects all five to fly to the ISS before the station's scheduled 2030 retirement.
