NASA's Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, and Jeanette Epps, along with Russian astronaut Alexander Grebenkin, returned nearly two months late after their mission was extended due to severe weather and capsule issues.
Michael Barratt, a veteran astronaut, praised the ground teams for their adaptability, stating, 'they had to replan, retool and kind of redo everything right along with us' throughout the mission's challenges.
The SpaceX capsule landed softly in the Gulf of Mexico, reaffirming the ongoing partnership with NASA and ensuring continued operations aboard the International Space Station.
Following their return, the International Space Station crew size stabilized at seven, consisting of four Americans and three Russians, restoring normal operations after an extended mission for some.
