Do they happen to know how high are they planning on going?
Other than the Apollo missions, I think Hubble was at around 400 miles when the Space Shuttle serviced it. The ISS is around 220 miles.
I know of no other manned missions by us or the Russians that went that high….
Unless there was some classified stuff going on higher up.
Wouldn’t surprise me.

Higher than the Inspiration4 which went to 364 mi. These are basically up and down missions, not true orbital missions lasting many days, weeks or months.
