“It was completely out of the blue. It was just amazingly quick. My crewmates definitely saw that I was in distress. It was all hands on deck within just a matter of seconds.” Source: NASA astronaut Mike Fincke’s narrative about how he experienced a medical issue on January 7, roughly five and a half months into his Crew-11 mission. While preparing for a spacewalk and eating dinner, Fincke reportedly suddenly lost the ability to speak. This issue persisted for around 20 minutes and triggered immediate coordination between the crew and flight surgeons on the ground.
