Cape Canaveral (America). After six months on the International Space Station (ISS), four astronauts returned to Earth early Monday morning. His ‘Space X’ capsule parachuted into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Florida.
NASA astronauts Stephen Bowen and Warren ‘Woody’ Hoberg, Andrei Fedayev of Russia and Sultan Al-Neyadi of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) returned to Earth after completing this space mission. Al-Neyadi is the first person in the Arab world to spend such a long time in orbit.
Before departing the space station, he said that after arriving at the ISS in March, he was longing for a hot shower, a hot cup of coffee and the sea breeze. However, his return was delayed by a day due to bad weather.

SpaceX sent other passengers to the ISS a week ago to replace these astronauts. Later this month there will be another change to the ISS crew, which will see the long-awaited return of two Russian and one American scientists, who have been aboard the space station for an entire year.
