SPACEX CAPSULE DOCKS AS ASTRONAUTS PREPARE RETURN AFTER NINE MONTHS

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who were only supposed to be on the International Space Station for eight days, will begin their journey back to Earth later this week. A SpaceX capsule carrying a new crew has docked at the ISS. There will be a two-day handover period after which the old crew will begin their journey - there could be a small further delay due to weather conditions. The astronauts have consistently said that they have been happy to be on board the space station.
