A private astronaut mission returned to Earth early Tuesday. A SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft splashed down in the Pacific Ocean west of San Diego, California, at 5:31 am EDT (0931 GMT). The spacecraft was recovered and its four-person crew exited the capsule less than an hour later. The spacecraft launched to the International Space Station nearly three weeks ago on the Ax-4 mission for Axiom Space. The crew included astronauts from Hungary, India and Poland and was commanded by former NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson. The crew performed dozens of experiments and outreach activities while on the station.
