A pod of dolphins were seen circling their capsule, as it bobbed in the ocean off the coast of Florida. Suni and Butch’s stay on the International Space Station (ISS) was only supposed to last eight days, but their mission was dramatically extended after the spacecraft that they arrived on suffered technical problems The pair were finally able to return back to Earth yesterday in a SpaceX capsule along, with Nasa astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov.

This is a developing situation. NASA is considering a rare early return of Crew-11 after canceling a planned ISS spacewalk due to an unspecified medical issue with one astronaut. The crew member is stable, but the EVA — slated for Zena Cardman and Mike Fincke — was scrubbed. That spacewalk would’ve tied a career EVA record for Fincke. NASA says all options are on the table. 👀🚀
