Joining the Starliner astronauts for the water landing off the Florida coast at around 5:57 p.m. EDT were NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov – the two Crew-9 astronauts who originally flew aboard the spacecraft to the space station in September.

NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore are back on Earth. NASA and SpaceX's Crew-9 mission successfully splashed down into the Gulf of America, off the Florida Coast on Tuesday evening. It comes nearly 10 months after Williams and Wilmore launched to the International Space Station aboard Boeing's Starliner spacecraft.
