Astronaut Sunita Williams Set To Touch Down Earth On March 19 | Here’s Latest

After an extended stay of more than eight months in space, NASA astronaut Sunita Williams will return to Earth in March 19.

Currently, Sunita Williams is the commander of the flying laboratory.

Astronaut Butch Wilmore told CNN in an interview, “The plan is that Crew-10 will launch on March 12, do a turnover for a week, and we will return on March 19.”

The return of astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams, who arrived at the International Space Station via Boeing’s Starliner capsule last summer, is contingent upon the arrival of the four-person Crew-10 team to maintain normal staffing levels of American personnel.

“We greatly benefit from SpaceX’s commercial efforts and their proactive approach in having another spacecraft ready for us to assess and use in support of Crew-10,” he added.
