A joint U.S. and Russian space crew successfully landed in the steppes of Kazakhstan after spending eight months on the International Space Station. On Sunday, NASA astronaut Chris Williams, along with Russian cosmonauts Sergei Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev, safely returned to Earth. They landed in their Soyuz MS-28 spacecraft, which descended gently with the aid of parachutes to a pre-determined area southeast of Dzhezkazgan.
The crew’s time in orbit lasted 241 days. This mission marked the first spaceflight for both Williams and Mikaev, while Kud-Sverchkov experienced his second journey to space.
