NASA astronaut Sunita Williams returned to Earth after a nine-month stay in space, landing in the SpaceX Dragon Freedom capsule off the Florida coast. Williams, along with Butch Wilmore and Crew-9 members, was rescued following Boeing’s Starliner propulsion failure. The astronauts, welcomed with cheers and even dolphins at splashdown, are now undergoing a 45-day rehabilitation to readjust to Earth’s gravity. The White House credited Donald Trump for ensuring their safe return. Williams' ancestral village in Gujarat is preparing celebrations. SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket successfully completed the mission, with Crew-10 now taking over at the ISS.
