International Space Station

NASA astronaut Jonny Kim and Russian cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritsky undocked from the International Space Station aboard Soyuz MS‑27/73S at 8:41 p.m. EST Monday, heading for a parachute‑assisted landing on the Kazakh steppe targeted for 12:04 a.m. EST. The crew’s return caps an eight‑month mission spanning 3,920 orbits and 104 million miles; recovery teams are staged in frigid conditions to retrieve the trio, after which Kim will fly to Johnson Space Center and his crewmates to Star City for debriefs.
