FLORIDA – Four astronauts have returned to Earth from the International Space Station (ISS), in what was the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) first night-time landing in 53 years.
The crew – three NASA astronauts and one from Japan’s space agency Jaxa – spent almost six months in space.
They flew back in SpaceX’s Crew Dragon Resilience and splash-landed off Panama City here at 02:56 Eastern Daylight Time yesterday.
They were supposed to leave the ISS earlier, but their departure was delayed due to bad weather in Florida.(BBC)
