Three astronauts return to earth after a year in space

Frank Rubio, an American astronaut, made history by etching his name in the records of American space exploration. After a space mission lasting over a year, he safely returned to Earth along with two Russian cosmonauts on a Thursday. They landed in Kazakhstan and used a Soyuz capsule for their return.
What was originally planned as a 180-day mission turned into a 371-day stay in space. Frank Rubio spent more than two weeks beyond NASA's previous endurance record during this mission.
During the mission, the Soyuz capsule suffered significant damage due to a collision with space debris, causing the loss of its coolant. This raised concerns among engineers, leading to a swift return of the capsule to Earth, ensuring the astronauts' safety.
Frank Rubio and his companions experienced extraordinary aspects of gravity during their spaceflight. After landing in the barren steppes of Kazakhstan, they were greeted by helicopters and safely returned home.
Rubio, an Army physician and helicopter pilot, brought a fresh perspective to space exploration as a rookie astronaut. He delved into psychological research on astronauts during his time in space, especially considering the effects of prolonged weightlessness. He also faced personal challenges in his family during this period.
As of now, NASA has no plans for missions lasting longer than a year, so Frank Rubio may hold onto his record for some time. This spaceflight was a significant and fascinating experience for him and his fellow astronauts.
