NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, who were stranded aboard the International Space Station (ISS) for nine months due to a malfunction in their Starliner spacecraft, have finally welcomed their rescue team. A SpaceX Crew Dragon carrying the Crew-10 team successfully docked with the ISS at 05:45 GMT on Sunday, marking the beginning of their long-awaited return mission.
Live footage captured the emotional reunion as Williams and Wilmore embraced Crew-10 members after months of uncertainty. Originally scheduled for a brief mission, the duo was forced to extend their stay when their spacecraft was deemed unsafe for reentry. NASA had to send additional supplies to sustain them during the unexpected extension.

00:38from Dragon.
00:39And what I love about this is you can see the Crew 9 Dragon directly above that docking.
01:26Range rate of less than .082 which as you mentioned earlier I think continues to get
01:31slower and slower as we make this final approach.
01:56And liftoff of Crew 10 now soaring to International Space Station 1.7.
02:26This is a nod to the unique and deep cultural traditions from which each of us come.
02:46While we're from different parts of the world, we are brought together in this bold endeavor
02:50and we represent all of humanity.
