CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Four astronauts are set to return to Earth in the early hours of Sunday splashing down off Florida’s Gulf Coast following a 6-month stay 200 miles above the planet.
NASA announced Friday it was no longer targeting Saturday afternoon to bring home the SpaceX Dragon Resilience capsule and its crew, marking the second time the splashdown has been postponed due to weather.
The astronauts’ return was first pushed back earlier this week from Wednesday to Saturday. [TRENDING: Thousands skipping 2nd vaccine dose | This K-9 is stopping child abuse.
