NASA astronauts return home after more than nine months in space

CNN  

Relive the return of NASA’s Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore on the SpaceX Crew-9 mission as it happened. NASA’s Butch Wilmore, Roscosmos’ Aleksandr Gorbunov and NASA’s Nick Hague and Suni Williams are seen inside a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft onboard the recovery ship Megan shortly after splashdown on Tuesday. If Musk had made the offer to someone outside NASA leadership, the source noted, “I’m sure they would have responded and said, ‘Well, that would cost us several $100 million extra that we don’t have for a new Dragon capsule and Falcon 9.’” Musk has since said the offer was not made to NASA but was taken directly to the Biden White House, which “refused to allow it,” according to a post he shared on X. It’s unclear why such a deal would have been discussed with the White House, which does not typically have direct involvement in NASA crew assignments or space station staffing matters. “And if they would have contacted the White House, we would let NASA know as well.” When asked about the matter during a remote news conference from the International Space Station on March 4, Wilmore said he was not familiar with what offer may have been made, but said of Musk’s statements, “I believe him.” When asked about the matter Friday, Sarah Walker, SpaceX’s director of Dragon mission management, also said she was not involved in the conversations referenced in Musk’s social media posts. NASA's SpaceX Crew-9 mission, carrying US astronauts Nick Hague, Butch Wilmore, and Suni Williams and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, undocks Tuesday following their monthslong mission aboard the International Space Station.
