At the first press conference after his return, held on December 21 at the JAXA Houston office, Yui appeared in good health to the press via a TV monitor.
ഀYui mentioned that he has too many thoughts to tweet regarding the importance of Earth-friendly environmental control technology, culture of mutual respect on the ISS, and Japan's importance among international partners, but hoped to discuss such matters at the mission reporting events to be held after he returns to Japan in February.

Just before launch, the backup crew was dismissed from duty. The Soyuz spacecraft carrying the 45S prime crew was launched at 08:03 a.m. on December 15.
ഀOnishi will continue training for his ISS long-duration mission, scheduled six months later.
ऀऀ㰀⼀搀椀瘀㸀ഀAstronauts Soichi Noguchi and Akihiko Hoshide underwent flight training at Oita airport aboard the Hawker Beechcraft Type G58 (Baron), a twin-engine plane owned by Honda Airways.
ഀThis training is intended to maintain and improve multitasking ability—one of the qualifications required of astronauts.
ഀPrior to actual flight, Noguchi and Hoshide used a flight simulator to familiarize themselves with flying the aircraft, and attended lectures on meteorology and flight plans. They also confirmed the preflight inspection procedure and actually inspected the plane they were to use.
ഀDuring the flight training, Noguchi and Hoshide each piloted the aircraft using only information shown on the instrumentation to determine the aircraft's attitude, altitude, position, and course, performed an aborted landing (go-around), and operated the aircraft in response to irregular conditions.
