NASA’s SpaceX Crew-12 mission lasted 237 days. The crew launched on Feb. 13, 2026, and splashed down in the Pacific Ocean off Los Angeles at 8:34 a.m. PDT on Oct. 8, 2026, after more than seven months aboard the International Space Station.
The crew, NASA astronauts Jessica Meir and Jack Hathaway, ESA astronaut Sophie Adenot, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Andrey Fedyaev, traveled more than 100 million miles and completed more than 3,792 orbits of Earth. Adenot became the first French woman to perform a spacewalk outside the station.
