Pioneer in the stuck spacecraft starts a journey to return to Earth after 9 months in space

Nine months after they stayed stuck at the International Space Station, an American astronaut began their trip to return to Earth on the SpaceX Crow Dragon vehicle, according to the footage broadcast by NASA directly.

Space pioneers left Sony Williams and Barry Willmur International Space Station on the “SpaceX Croo Dragon” vehicle, where live footage of NASA showed the moment they started.

It is expected to land in the water off the coast of Florida around six o’clock in the evening local time (22:00 GMT) on Tuesday, accompanied by American astronaut Nick Hig and Russian astronaut Alexander Gorbonov.

Williams Wilmor arrived at the station at the beginning of June on the first Boeing Starlaner’s first trial flight.

Their mission was supposed to last only one week, but many technical problems in the vehicle forced them to stay in space for a longer period.
