Just days after the International Space Station’s crew reached 10 people, three have returned to Earth. Russian cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Sergey Kud-Sverchkov and NASA astronaut Kate Rubins ended their 185-day mission on the space station Friday.

Their departure in the Soyuz MS-17 spacecraft aired live on NASA’s TV channel and website. The hatch closed on their spacecraft Friday night after the crew bid farewell to the others on the station, and they undocked from the station’s Poisk port at 9:34 p.m. ET.

The trio navigated reentry through Earth’s atmosphere and landed at 12:55 a.m. ET Saturday (10:55 a.m. local) on the Kazakhstan steppe.

The cosmonauts will return to their training base in Star City, Russia, and Rubins will fly home to Houston.

Together, the crew’s time on the station encompassed 2,960 orbits of Earth and 78.4 million miles after their arrival in October.

This was the second flight for Rubins, which means she has now spent 300 days in space, and the second flight for Ryzhikov helped him reach 358 cumulative days. Kud-Sverchkov experienced his first spaceflight.

This second spaceflight experience for Rubins included hundreds of hours working on space station experiments. She also served as an ambassador for science during calls to the space station with the National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, among other

On April 22, the space station’s occupancy is scheduled to grow to 11 when NASA’s SpaceX Crew-2 members, including NASA astronauts Shane Kimbrough and Megan McArthur, JAXA astronaut Akihiko Hoshide, and European Space Agency astronaut Thomas Pesquet arrive.

Astronauts on the space station have prepared for the new crew by setting up extra sleep stations and freeing up ports for the arrival of new spacecraft. Then, Crew-1 is scheduled to return to Earth on April 28, leaving the space station with seven crew members again.
