Walking on the flight deck from the helicopters three were holding onto people, all had a wheelchair behind them, in case.
Their strides were a little unsteady.....they must feel so heavy, need to adjust to the atmosphere again.
Love that the director of the recovery mission is a woman. She is originally from Colombia, since 10 years old she wanted to be involved in space missions.
I saw it all and it was glorious!
It took forever to get them out of that pod though.
And the communication snafu bothered me a bit, even though they were already splashed down.
It has been marvellous to watch this latest part of history. I held my breath so much at lift off, also of course the coming through the earths atmosphere and them landing safely.
I have been tuned into the 'Nasa Live' throughout, and here at Websleuths reading so much everyone had added. Fantastic also seeing the astronauts so clearly, seeing their daily living as such.
I did learn several things, but one part that always got me confused was about how could anyone live on the moon as there isn't any oxygen. But reading later about there is actually oxygen there, it just isn't in a gaseous form that humans need to breathe it.
