Imagine an 8 day trip up to the International Space Station, turning into a 286 day excursion instead!
NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry “Butch” Wilmore splashed down in their SpaceX Dragon capsule off the coast of Florida just before 6 p.m. today.
I don’t know about you, but if that were me, after that first breath of fresh air, get me a hot shower, a home-cooked meal and my own bed! Their families have to be so relieved as well.
Welcome home to Suni, Butch, as well as NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, who helped in retrieving Suni and Butch.
