NEW YORK:  The Crew Dragon spacecraft carrying the crew of the Crew-5 mission on Saturday successfully undocked from the International Space Station (ISS) to return to Earth. The broadcast was conducted on the website of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

Initially, the undocking was supposed to take place on March 9, but was postponed twice due to weather conditions at the splashdown site. The ship is expected to splash down at 09:02 p.m. US East Coast time (04:02 a.m. Moscow time on March 12).

The crew members returning to Earth are Russian woman Anna Kikina, as well as NASA astronauts Nicole Mann and Josh Cassada and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Koichi Wakata.

The Crew Dragon spacecraft with the Crew-5 mission on board was launched to the ISS from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on October 5. The next day, it docked with the orbital station automatically.

Kikina became the first Russian cosmonaut to travel to the ISS on a Crew Dragon spacecraft as part of a cross-flight program between NASA and the Russian space agency Roscosmos.

After the departure of Crew-5, Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Prokopyev, Dmitry Petelin (TASS special correspondent on the ISS) and Andrey Fedyaev, NASA astronauts Frank Rubio, Stephen Bowen, Woody Hoburg and UAE astronaut Sultan al-Neyadi will continue to work at the ISS.
