Q: How did the days pass in space? Gezeravcı: It was a planned, intense process every minute. We were there to reap the rewards of every effort we put in. We had rehearsed every day by simulating it. There was no room for different emotional ups and downs. Our experiments were intense. I did not encounter any physical oscillations. I started the experiments within 1 hour after reaching the Space Station. There was no hour to waste. We completed this mission with all its steps on the 100th anniversary of the Republic.
