The International Space Station passed approximately 260 statute miles overhead Hurricane Ian at approximately 3 p.m. EDT Monday, Sept. 26, 2022. External cameras on the orbiting laboratory captured views of the storm as it gained strength south of Cuba while moving toward the north-northwest. The storm is expected to intensify before approaching the west coast of Florida on Wednesday into Thursday. NASA managers met Monday morning and made the decision to roll the Artemis I Space Launch System rocket and Orion spacecraft back to the Vehicle Assembly Building after additional data gathered overnight did not show improving expected conditions for the Kennedy Space Center area. The decision allows time for employees to address the needs of their families and protect the integrated rocket and spacecraft system.
