Crew Dragon spacecraft carrying Roscosmos cosmonaut to leave ISS no earlier than Thursday - NASA

WASHINGTON. Oct 7 (Interfax) - The undocking of the SpaceX Crew Dragon 8 spacecraft carrying three astronauts and Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin from the International Space Station (ISS) has been moved to Thursday due to bad weather in the splashdown area, NASA said.

The undocking was initially planned for Tuesday.

Besides Grebenkin, Crew 8 comprises NASA astronauts Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt and Jeanette Epps, who have been staying at the ISS since early March.

Later that day, the spacecraft will splash down outside Florida in the Gulf of Mexico.
