After a brief setback on Thursday, astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore can now look forward returning home soon after nine long months of being stranded on the International Space Station (ISS). NASA and billionaire Elon Musk’s SpaceX on Friday launched the Falcon 9 rocket, carrying a Dragon spacecraft on the Crew-10 mission, from the Kennedy Space Center.

According to NASA, the two stranded astronauts are scheduled to return to Earth a few days after the Crew-10 launch. The mission was briefly delayed on Thursday due to a hydraulic system issue with a ground support clamp arm.
