Astronauts Complete Historic Space Station Mission

A team of four astronauts, led by renowned veteran Peggy Whitson, concluded their groundbreaking mission aboard the International Space Station.

Their return, in a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule, marked a significant milestone for space exploration, highlighting international collaboration.

After a smooth undocking and a 22-hour journey, the capsule, nicknamed 'Grace', successfully splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off California.

This Axiom-4 mission was particularly notable for India, Poland, and Hungary, representing their first human spaceflights to the ISS in over 40 years.
