Anne McClain is NASA astronaut, lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army, enginer.
She was a Flight Engineer for ISS Expeiditon 58-59.
The Expedition 58/59 trio launched aboard Soyuz MS-11 on December 3, 2018. The launch was originally scheduled for December 20, 2018, but was rescheduled to the earlier date after the failure of Soyuz MS-10 with Expedition 57/58 on October 11, 2018.
The crew successfully rendezvoused with the ISS six hours later, spending just over two weeks with the Expedition 57 crew, whose landing had been delayed due to the aborted launch of MS-10.
On March 22, 2019, McClain and Nick Hague performed their first EVA to install the adapter plates while Dexte swaps the batteries between spacewalks. EVA lasted 6 hours and 39 minutes. They also removed debris from the Unity Module in preparation for the arrival of Cygnus NG-11 in April, stowing tools for the repair of the flex hose rotary coupler, and securing tiebacks on the solar array blanket boxes.
McClain was scheduled to perform a second EVA on March 29, with Chrisitna Koch, which would have been the first all-female spacewalk, but spacesuit sizing issues resulted in this EVA's being reassigned to Hague and Koch. McClain conducted a second spacewalk with Saint-Jacques on April 8.
McClain, Saint-Jacques and Kononenko returned to Earth on board Soyuz MS-11 on June 24, 2019.
