Mass. space experts on the impact of astronauts' bodies back on Earth
Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore returned to Earth on March 18, 2025, after spending nine months at the International Space Station following mechanical issues with their Boeing Starliner capsule.
During her mission, Williams set a female record for the most spacewalk hours at 62 hours and 6 minutes.
NASA will conduct medical evaluations on the astronauts to assess how their bodies changed in microgravity, including muscle loss and other adjustments.
A teacher named Todd Winchester reported excited students celebrating Williams' return as a hometown hero.
