NASA Moves to Accelerate ISS Crew Return
The space agency revealed Thursday it opted to accelerate the crew's Earth return from its initial schedule after mission teams identified a "medical concern" affecting one crew member.
Crew-11 comprises NASA astronauts Zena Cardman and Mike Fincke, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Kimiya Yui, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Oleg Platonov.
Should the undocking occur on schedule, the SpaceX Dragon capsule will make its ocean landing off California's coastline at 3:40 a.m. ET (1130 GMT) on Jan. 15, NASA stated.
