At the Cosmonaut Hotel crew quarters in Baikonur, Kazakhstan, Expedition 59 crewmember Christina Koch of NASA (right) waters a tree March 7 originally planted last October by crewmate Alexey Ovchinin (center). Ovchinin and crewmate Nick Hague of NASA (left) launched together last October 11, but their flight was cut short two minutes after launch by an abort triggered by a first-stage booster rocket separation problem. They are set to launch again March 14, U.S. time, this time with Koch on the Soyuz MS-12 spacecraft from the Baikonur Cosmodrome for a six-and-a-half month mission on the International Space Station...NASA/Victor Zelentsov.
