YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Two NASA astronauts stuck in orbit for nine months finally departed the International Space Station aboard a SpaceX capsule on Tuesday, kicking off their long-awaited voyage home. Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, seated inside a Dragon capsule with two other crew members, undocked from the ISS at 1:05 a.m. New York time on Tuesday.  The capsule is expected to travel through space, plunge through the atmosphere and ultimately fall to Earth under parachutes before splashing down off the Florida coast around 6 p.m. local time. The duo arrived at the ISS last June on a Boeing Co. spacecraft with plans to spend roughly a week in space. But that brief trip turned into roughly nine months when NASA decided in August the pair would come home on a rival SpaceX capsule instead, due to technical issues with their Boeing vehicle.
