International Space Station

The crew spent 177 days in space before splashing down in the Gulf of Mexico.

The return of three Americans and one German marks the busiest period yet for Elon Musk's space taxi service.

They launched from Kennedy Space Center and they will spend close to half a year aboard the station.

Three rich businessmen returned from the International Space Station with their astronaut escort Monday, wrapping up a pricey trip that marked NASA's debut as a B&B host.

They'll splash down off the coast of Florida on Wednesday, about a day after leaving the ISS.

Historically, the partnership between the two countries has transcended political tension here on Earth. That relationship could soon erode.

The station faced a threat from space debris earlier this month after a Russian anti-satellite missile test created more than a thousand pieces of space junk.

The crew was told to shelter as a cluster of space junk from a Russian anti-satellite missile test was projected to pass close to the station.

The astronauts were at the International Space Station and splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico near Pensacola.

The Cargo Dragon capsule is carrying dozens of new science experiments to help researchers understand the biological challenges of spaceflight.

The new plan is to begin undocking on Saturday at 8:35 p.m. EST and splashdown at 2:57 a.m. on Sunday. This will be the first time since 1962 that a splashdown will occur at night.

It's the third flight of the Crew Dragon capsule since last May, and the first time an American capsule has been reused in decades. There are now more astronauts than beds on the space station.
