SpaceX Crew-10 Mission to Facilitate Starliner Astronauts' Return

SpaceX's Crew-10 mission, scheduled to launch as early as Wednesday, will enable the return of Boeing Starliner astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who have been at the International Space Station (ISS) since June due to Starliner spacecraft issues. The Crew-10 mission includes NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Jaxa astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov. Crew-10 is expected to arrive at the ISS the next morning. Wilmore and Williams will return to Earth with Crew-9 as early as March 16, after handover activities with Crew-10. Crew-9 will then splashdown off the Florida coast.
