Dolphins Suddenly Appear Next to SpaceX Pod After Splashdown

A pod of dolphins could be seen swimming around NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams after they safely returned to Earth on Tuesday.

After a nine-month-long test flight saga, their SpaceX capsule parachuted into the Gulf of Mexico in the early evening, just hours after departing the International Space Station. The splashdown occurred off the coast of Tallahassee, Florida, marking the end of their unexpectedly prolonged journey.

This is a developing news story and will be updated as more information is available.
