Astronauts face tough return to gravity after nine months

After nine months in space, NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams are returning to Earth aboard a SpaceX capsule, set to splash down off Florida. Originally planned as an eight-day mission, their stay on the ISS was extended due to spacecraft issues.
