The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, carrying the four crew members, undocked from the ISS’s Harmony module at 6:15 p.m. Eastern Time (2215 GMT) on Friday. The capsule is scheduled to splash down off the California coast at 11:33 a.m. Eastern Time Saturday.
The crew consists of NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Russian cosmonaut Kirill Peskov.
The mission is NASA’s 10th commercial crew rotation mission with SpaceX to the ISS.
