NASA has opted to bring the four-member Crew-11 team home from the International Space Station (ISS) earlier than planned, following an unspecified medical concern with one crew member that emerged on Wednesday afternoon.
The situation with the crewmember, described as “absolutely stable”, has already led to the indefinite postponement of the first spacewalk of 2026, originally scheduled for Thursday. The crew will return together on Dragon Endeavour with splashdown and recovery on Wednesday.
