At 3:29 p.m. EST, the hatch closed between the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft and the International Space Station in preparation for the return of NASA's SpaceX Crew-11 mission.

The spacecraft now is scheduled to autonomously undock from the orbiting laboratory at 5:20 p.m. for its return to Earth. NASA's undocking coverage begins at 5 p.m. on NASA+, Amazon Prime, and the agency's YouTube channel. Learn how to watch NASA content through a variety of online platforms, including social media.

Following the conclusion of undocking coverage, NASA will distribute audio-only discussions between Crew-11, the space station, and flight controllers during Dragon's transit away from the orbital complex.

Live return coverage resumes at 2:15 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 15 on NASA+, Amazon Prime, and the agency's YouTube channel, through splashdown.
