First all-civilian space crew returns to Earth

The quartet of newly minted citizen astronauts comprising the SpaceX Inspiration4 mission safely splashed down in the Atlantic off Florida's coast on Saturday, completing a three-day flight of the first all-civilian crew ever launched into Earth orbit. SpaceX's Crew Dragon capsule, dubbed Resilience, parachuted into the sea around 7pm EDT, shortly before sunset, after an automated re-entry descent, SpaceX said.
