Live: Astronauts Butch and Suni Return To Earth
Join us for LIVE coverage as we track NASA SpaceX Crew 9 as they depart the International Space Station. Butch and Suni are coming home!!
NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are set to return to Earth after an extended nine-month stay on the International Space Station (ISS).
After entering their SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, the spacecraft’s hatch will be closed on the Crew-9 explorers. After hatch closure, Crew-9 scheduled to undock from the International Sp
Their original eight-day mission prolonged due to thruster issues and helium leaks on Boeing’s Starliner, which made the spacecraft unsafe for return.
SpaceX’s Crew-10 mission docked with the ISS, bringing four replacements and allowing Williams and Wilmore to prepare for their departure.
They return aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule, with undocking expected early March 18 and splashdown off Florida’s coast later that evening, weather permitting.
During their extended mission, they conducted over 150 experiments.
Mission managers will continue monitoring weather conditions in the area. This as Dragon’s undocking depends on various factors, including spacecraft readiness, recovery team readiness, weather, sea states, and other factors.
