NASA Astronauts | Sunita Williams' Homecoming Date Confirmed, Will Splash Down Off US Coast

NASA Astronauts | Sunita Williams' Homecoming Date Confirmed, Will Splash Down Off US Coast A pair of US astronauts stuck for more than nine months on the International Space Station will be returned to Earth on Tuesday evening, NASA said. Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams are to be transported home with another American astronaut and a Russian cosmonaut aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon craft, which arrived at the ISS early Sunday. The stranded duo have been on the ISS since June after the Boeing Starliner spacecraft they were testing on its maiden crewed voyage suffered propulsion issues and was deemed unfit to fly them back to Earth.
