NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore returned to Earth after being stranded on the ISS for 286 days. Their return was expedited by efforts from President Trump and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk. A used SpaceX capsule replaced the delayed new one, enabling a timely return. Alongside Crew-9 members Nick Hague and Aleksandr Gorbunov, they departed the ISS at 1:05 a.m. EDT and were set for splashdown at 5:57 p.m. EDT. During her stay, Williams set a new NASA record for spacewalking time by a woman. The mission highlights SpaceX’s critical role in space missions.
