One of Elon Musk‘s main goals is to take mankind to Mars, a task for which he founded the well-known space company SpaceX. However, the creator of Tesla is investing his time in fixing Twitter, the well-known social network that hasn’t stopped giving him headaches since he took over a few months ago. But, as someone has to pursue Musk’s dream, just over 150 days ago up to 4 astronauts traveled to the International Space Station at the controls of Crew Dragon, a SpaceX spacecraft. And today, after much research and experimentation, they will begin their return home.

The objective of the SpaceX spacecraft crew’s mission was to conduct various scientific investigations and technology demonstrations with a single premise: to prepare humans for future space exploration missions. Thus, the work of Josh Cascada, Nicole Mann, Koichi Wataka and Anna Kikina was to delve into different future benefits for humanity on Earth, a mission that comes to an end today after 5 months. And, to commemorate the event, the International Space Station prepared a commemorative video with some of the best moments of the project.

Thus, Space X’s Crew 5 will begin their return shortly after 21:00 local time, at which time they will undock from the International Space Station; after this, they will begin a journey that will last just over 24 hours and return to Earth around 1:30 Saturday morning. Thus, Elon Musk can be happy with the outcome of this space mission. In recent years, the billionaire’s firm has stood out as one of the most ambitious in terms of the space race, which is why it put just over 50 satellites into orbit at the beginning of February. However, Musk has bigger concerns on the planet at the moment, such as his intention to ensure Twitter’s sustainability by rewarding the few remaining employees who have not yet been laid off.
