Four astronauts on Monday returned home from a six-month stay on the International Space Station, making a splashdown landing aboard their SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule off the coast of Florida, CNN reported.
The astronauts, members of the Crew-6 mission run jointly by NASA and SpaceX, departed the space station on Sunday at 7:05 am ET.
The crew spent the day aboard the 13-foot-wide Crew Dragon vehicle as it manoeuvred through Earth’s orbit and toward its target landing site off the coast of Jacksonville, Florida, where they landed after midnight ET. (ANI)
