NASA’s Crew-10 mission concluded successfully with a splashdown off the coast of San Diego, marking another milestone in long-duration human space exploration.

The crew — consisting of NASA astronauts Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov — returned safely aboard the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft at 11:33 a.m. ET (1533 UTC).

This mission underscores NASA’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of human spaceflight as part of a broader vision to establish a thriving space industry. NASA is advancing plans for private space stations in low Earth orbit, alongside ambitious goals for human exploration of the Moon and Mars.

Crew-10’s successful return highlights the ongoing progress in international collaboration and technology development essential for future long-duration missions beyond Earth’s orbit.
