On Thursday, the U.S. astronaut, 41, landed safely in Kazakhstan with astronauts Luca Parmitano and Alexandr Skvortsov — all of whom had been staying at the International Space Station, according to ABC News.
Koch — who documented her out-of-this-world journey on social media — shared a photo of some of her fellow crew mates on Instagram, shortly before she parted ways with them. Koch was born in Michigan and raised in Jacksonville, North Carolina, and later became a graduate of North Carolina State University. Prior to her residency among the stars, she lived in Montana with her husband, Robert Koch. She was selected by NASA to become an astronaut in 2013.It was a momentous day she said she won’t soon forget.
Recalling her first time conducting a spacewalk back in March, Koch said it was gratifying: “At that moment, I just felt like everything I had ever worked for, everything I had ever loved, everything I had ever wanted to contribute to my entire life was just culminating in that moment.”
