NASAs SpaceX Crew-10 Dragon Splashdown at 11:33 a.m. EDT
At 11:33 a.m. EDT, the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, carrying NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov splashed down off the coast of San Diego, California. This completes a stay in space of 148 days for the four-person crew.
Teams aboard the recovery ship, including two fast boats, are securing the SpaceX Dragon and ensuring the spacecraft is safe for the recovery effort. As the fast boat teams complete their work, the recovery ship will move into position to hoist Dragon onto the main deck with the astronauts inside. Once on the main deck, the crew will egress the spacecraft and receive medical checks before being flown via helicopter to meet up with a NASA aircraft bound for Houston.
NASA will host a post-splashdown media conference at 1 p.m. on the agency's YouTube channel.
The following will participate in the news conference:
