Four crew members who flew to the International Space Station (ISS) at the beginning of this year to free two astronauts who were remained in a difficult situation The besieged space capsule returned to Earth on Saturday.
NASA astronauts Ann McClain and Nicolas Ayers, along with Japanese Takuya Onashi and Russia, Kirill Peskov, jumping in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Southern California on Saturday morning at 11:33 East in the SpaceX capsule.
This was the first Pacific spray for NASA over 50 years, and the third for SpaceX with people on board.
NASA astronauts were last jumped in the Pacific Ocean in 1975, during the Apollo-SoiUs mission, the first international space mission in which Americans and Soviets participated.

The crew began in March, replacing Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, which remained stuck at the space station for nine months on what was supposed to be a weekly mission after the Boeing Starliner that they arrived suffered problems with the engine and Helicia leakage.
NASA came to the conclusion that the return of them to the Earth in the capsule was too risky, so the asterisk leaned back in the dishonor, and Wilmore and Williams returned home to the SpaceX capsule in March after the arrival of their replacement.
Wilmore announced his retirement After 25 years with NASA this week.
“We want this mission, our mission was a reminder of what people can do when we work together when we explore together,” McClain said, before leaving the space station on Friday, mentioning “some turbulent times on Earth”.

After leaving the spacecraft, the crew received medical checks before flying through a helicopter in order to meet with a NASA plane heading to Houston.
“In general, the mission became great, I am glad to return the team,” said Steve Stich, the manager of the NASA commercial team, for a press conference after spraying. “SpaceX again did a lot of work to restore the crew on the west coast.”
