SpaceX crew returns to Earth after historic mission | BBC News


SpaceX’s Polaris Dawn crew has returned to Earth after five days in orbit.

The historic mission featured the world’s first commercial spacewalk by billionaire Jared Isaacman.

The Dragon capsule made splashdown off the coast of Florida shortly after 03:37 local time (07:37 GMT), in an event stream lived by SpaceX.

"Splashdown of Dragon confirmed! Welcome back to Earth," SpaceX said on social media platform X.

The US space agency Nasa said the mission represented "a giant leap forward" for the commercial space industry.
