An all-private astronaut crew of two Americans and two Saudi nationals, including the first Arab woman sent into orbit, returned safely from International Space Station on Tuesday. The SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule carrying them parachuted into the Gulf of Mexico off the Florida coast after a 12-hour return flight. The crew was led by 63-year-old retired NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson.
