Bio
Before spaceflight selection, Vasileuskaya worked as a flight attendant and instructor for Belavia and had a long background in ballroom dancing. She was chosen through Belarus's national selection project for a woman to fly to the International .
She launched on Soyuz MS-25 in March 2024 with Oleg Novitsky and Tracy Caldwell Dyson. After roughly two weeks aboard the ISS as part of the 21st visiting expedition, she returned to Earth on Soyuz MS-24 with Novitsky and Loral O'Hara. The visiting expedition describes the station stay, but it should not become a separate flight card.
