Watch as three International Space Station crew members—NASA astronaut Don Pettit, along with Roscosmos cosmonauts Alexey Ovchinin and Ivan Vagner—begin final preparations for their return to Earth aboard Soyuz MS-26, currently targeted for Saturday, April 19.
(In local time, MS-26 will touch down on Sunday, April 20: Pettit’s 70th birthday!)
After entering the Soyuz MS-26 spacecraft, the spacecraft’s hatch will close at approximately 2:25 p.m. EDT (1825 UTC); the spacecraft is scheduled to undock at 5:57 p.m. EDT (2157 UTC).
