SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft has successfully undocked from the International Space Station. This was reported by NASA, according to UNN.
Details
According to reports, it carries NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who were supposed to complete their mission nine months ago, as well as American astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Alexander Gorbunov.
This mission was delayed due to technical problems with the Starliner spacecraft developed by Boeing, which caused the astronauts to remain on the ISS much longer than planned. Initially, their visit to the space station was only supposed to last eight days.
The team is expected to land on Earth on Wednesday.
