SpaceX’s Dragon capsule splashed down on the coast of Florida at 3.27 am today. After this, the safety team already present there took out the four astronauts one by one from the spacecraft through the recovery ship. During this, first Crew-9 mission captain Nick Hague, Russian astronaut Alexander Gorbunov, Sunita Williams and finally Butch Wilmer came out.

When SpaceX’s Dragon capsule entered the Earth’s atmosphere, its temperature reached 1,600 degrees Celsius.

This was the moment when Sunita Williams felt gravity for the first time after nine months. During this, Williams smiled and waved her hand to greet.

As soon as Sunita Williams was taken out of the Dragon capsule, she was seated directly on a stretcher. This is done due to medical emergency. While coming out of the Dragon capsule and sitting directly on the stretcher, she felt the gravity of the earth for the first time after nine months. During this, she stood on her feet for a few seconds, but due to not being in gravity for a long time, she was unable to balance, due to which two people picked her up and made her sit on the stretcher. Let us tell you that both the astronauts had left for only 8 days. But due to technical problems, they had to spend 9 months there. On June 5, 2024, they were sent into space through Boeing’s new Starliner Crew Capsule. Wilmer and Williams spent 286 days in space, which was 278 days more than the originally scheduled time.

According to NASA, Sunita Williams and her team completed 900 hours of research. She conducted more than 150 experiments and set a new record – the woman who spent the most time in space. She spent 62 hours and 9 minutes outside the space station. That is, she did a spacewalk 9 times.
