A SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule successfully docked with the International Space Station (ISS) early Sunday, delivering four astronauts as part of NASA's Crew-10 mission. This arrival facilitates the long-awaited return of NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams, who have been aboard the ISS for nine months due to technical issues with Boeing's Starliner capsule. The Crew-10 team comprising NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Japanese astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Russian cosmonaut Kirill Peskov, launched from Kennedy Space Center on Friday and will remain on the station for approximately six months. Wilmore and Williams, along with NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, are scheduled to return to Earth on Wednesday.
