Crew Dragon brings four space travellers back home
Cosmonaut Alexander Gorbunov of Roscosmos and NASA astronauts Nick Hague, Barry Wilmore, and Sunita Williams have returned to Earth, NASA reports. Gorbunov and Hague spent 171 days in orbit, while Williams and Wilmore were there for 286 days. Williams and Wilmore were originally scheduled to spend eight days on the station, but their mission was extended by nine months due to a spacecraft malfunction caused by the failure of several maneuvering thrusters during docking with the ISS. Cosmonauts Alexey Ovchinin, Ivan Vagner and Kirill Peskov, as well as NASA astronauts Donald Pettit, Anne McClain and Nicole Ayers, and JAXA astronaut Takuya Onishi continue their flight on board the International Space Station (ISS).
