NASA will host a live news conference at 5 p.m. EST on Thursday from the agency’s headquarters in Washington to discuss the International Space Station and its crew.

The matter involved a single crew member, who is stable. Due to medical privacy, it is not appropriate for NASA to share more details about the crew member.

Participants in the news conference include:

NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman Amit Kshatriya, associate administrator Dr. James Polk, chief health and medical officer, NASA Headquarters
