Astronaut Shane Kimbrough on ISS

NASA astronaut Shane Kimbrough is seen executing the SPHERES-Halo experiment during Expedition 50 aboard the International Space Station. The investigation used two small, self-contained satellites (SPHERES) fitted with donut-like rings to test wireless power transfer and formation flight using electromagnetic fields.

 

Kimbrough was born January 4, 1967 and was selected as a NASA astronaut in 2004. He flew STS-126 in 2008 and to the Space Station on Expedition 49/50 in 2016-2017.
