Two NASA astronauts…
Who’ve been working odd jobs and taking on temp work
aboard the International Space Station
After definitely not being stranded since last summer
But operating under a prolonged nine-month contingency plan…
Are back on Earth at long long last…
The capsule carrying Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore splashed down off the Gulf coast of Florida shortly before 6 p.m. Florida time on Tuesday.
Currently, the astronauts are getting reacquainted with loved ones, gravity, and the concept of up and down.
