NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are poised to return home after an extended nine-month mission aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Their return was facilitated by the successful launch of SpaceX's Crew-10 mission on March 14, 2025, from Kennedy Space Center. The Crew-10 team, comprising NASA's Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Japan's Takuya Onishi, and Russia's Kirill Peskov, is set to replace the current ISS crew. Williams and Wilmore's mission was prolonged due to technical issues with Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, initially intended for their return. The Crew-10 astronauts will conduct a six-month mission focused on scientific research aboard the ISS.
