The SpaceX Crew Dragon Endurance capsule successfully launched on Friday, March 14, and docked with the International Space Station just over a day later. While the new crew settles in, NASA has scheduled the return of the departing astronauts for this week.

NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, along with Nick Hague and Aleksandr Gorbunov, will board the Crew Dragon spacecraft for their return journey, which is expected to take about 17 hours. Undocking is set for early Tuesday at 1 a.m. Eastern time, as NASA aims to minimize the handover period to conserve food and supplies.
