Wrong is still wrong just because you benefited from it.

Splashdown!   In the ocean off Florida.   It was beautiful seeing them come back through the earth's atmosphere!  Fantastic achievement, and may they be recovered safely.

 

Edited to add-- ha, we are on the same page, @Nancy Drew !

Perfect splashdown! Crew 9 is now back on Earth in their Space X Dragon spacecraft. Right at the predicted time.

 

Next, teams will lift the craft onto the recovery ship and open the hatch, a process expected to take 30-60 minutes.

The astronauts splashed down off Florida's coast Tuesday.

 

Crew-9 landed off the coast of Tallahassee.

We just watched the down and I said to my hubby I am much like I was in 2nd grade when we saw a space capsule return to earth but the coverage is much better 

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.
