As the capsule landed, dolphins greeted the astronauts, offering a stunning and unexpected welcome back to Earth! The visuals captured the astronauts stepping out of the spacecraft, smiling and waving as they were greeted by recovery teams. The Dragon capsule was lifted onto a recovery vessel, and for the first time since September last year, its side hatch was opened. The astronauts, with the help of the ground crew, emerged one by one. Crew-9 commander Nick Hague was the first to come out, followed by Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov. Then, Sunita Williams emerged, smiling and waving, feeling the pull of Earth’s gravity after spending months in microgravity. Butch Wilmore was the last to exit the capsule, completing their safe return. Cheers echoed as the astronauts were safely out of the Dragon.
