A NASA astronaut and the Russian cosmonauts parachute-landed in Kazakhstan on Wednesday after a trip back to Earth from the International Space Station, in a rare instance of U.S.-Russia cooperation.

Tensions between the U.S. and Russia are high as the U.S. imposed strict sanctions in the wake of the Russian military’s invasion of Ukraine, but some 150 miles above Earth an important partnership between the U.S. and Russia remains: the International Space Station.

Watkins is among the four astronauts who SpaceX launched as part of NASA's Crew-4 mission to the International Space Station.

Two NASA astronauts were scheduled for a Tuesday morning spacewalk to fix a faulty antenna on the International Space Station. But the threat of space debris has delayed those plans.

Life on the International Space Station is back to normal after a cloud of space debris threatened the safety of the seven astronauts and cosmonauts on board.

Astronauts on board the International Space Station sheltered in place Monday morning as space junk threatened to pass close to the station. The seven astronauts on board took refuge in two docked spacecraft as orbital space debris made a close pass, according to Russian state media.

NASA astronaut Megan McArthur called the situation "sub-optimal," but says the crew's four astronauts are "prepared to deal with it." They will return home after spending nearly 200 days in space.
