Four astronauts returned to Earth from the International Space Station in a scenic splashdown Thursday morning in the Pacific Ocean off the Southern California coast.
The SpaceX crew capsule deployed its giant parachutes high above the ocean to slow its descent, landing in the water at about 8:35 a.m. PT. The capsule was carrying NASA astronauts Jessica Meir (commander) and Jack Hathaway (pilot), European Space Agency astronaut Sophie Adenot (mission specialist) and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev (mission specialist).
