Nasa astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams have returned to Earth after their SpaceX capsule spectacularly splashed down off the coast of Florida.
Williams and Wilmore returned to Earth after the pair endured an unexpected extended stay on the International Space Station.
Wilmore and Williams, who had been stuck at the ISS for nine months after problems with Boeing's new capsule, returned in the SpaceX capsule along with two other astronauts.
The Nasa control room erupted in cheers as the capsule touched down safely on the vast blue waters, accompanied by four parachutes.
