At 7:59 a.m. EDT (4:59 p.m. Kazakhstan time), the Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft made a parachute-assisted touchdown on the steppe of Kazakhstan, southeast of the city of Dzhezkazgan.
Spanning 184 days in area, NASA astronaut Tracy C. Dyson’s mission contains protecting 2,944 orbits of the Earth and a journey of 78 million miles. The Soyuz MS-25 spacecraft launched March 23, and arrived on the station March 25, with Dyson, Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Novitskiy, and spaceflight participant Marina Vasilevskaya of Belarus. Novitskiy and Vasilevskaya had been aboard the station for 12 days earlier than returning house with NASA astronaut Loral O’Hara on April 6.
Roscosmos cosmonauts Nikolai Chub and Oleg Kononenko, who launched with O’Hara to the station on the Soyuz MS-24 spacecraft final September, returned after 374 days in area and a visit of 158.6 million miles, spanning 5,984 orbits.
Dyson spent her third spaceflight aboard the station as an Expedition 70 and 71 flight engineer, and returned with Kononenko, finishing his fifth flight into area and accruing an all-time document 1,111 days in orbit, and Chub, who accomplished his first spaceflight.
The three crew members will fly on a helicopter from the touchdown website to the restoration staging metropolis of Karaganda, Kazakhstan. Dyson will board a NASA aircraft and return to Houston, whereas Kononenko and Chub will depart for a coaching base in Star Metropolis, Russia.
