A SpaceX capsule transporting four astronauts from the International Space Station (ISS) is due to splash down off the coast of California after ending their mission early due to a medical emergency.
The SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, known as the “Endeavour”, began its 10-and-a-half-hour descent from orbit at 22:30 GMT on Wednesday and is due to land on Thursday morning in the Pacific Ocean, according to the United States space agency NASA.
