Looks like Woody's stint in space will be coming to a close here fairly soon. The next crew to the ISS is scheduled to launch next week:

"NASA will provide coverage of the upcoming prelaunch and launch activities for the agency’s SpaceX Crew-7 mission with astronauts to the International Space Station. The launch is targeted for 3:49 a.m. EDT Friday, Aug. 25, from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Dragon spacecraft, named Endurance, is scheduled to dock to the space station at 2:02 a.m. EDT Saturday, Aug. 26."


Seems I saw recently that Woody's crew will return no earlier than September 1. I hope Woody has had a good stay on the ISS...seems he has from what I have seen.

Although delayed by about a day, looks like Woody and crew are currently scheduled to return to earth sometime in the late eve hours of this Sunday night/early Monday morning.

Looks like it was a great mission for Woody! Safe returns Woody!

The crew undocked from the ISS earlier plan to do a deorbit burn later this eve. Splashdown is scheduled for a little after midnight tonight eastern time.

From NASA: “ Sunday, Sept. 3 11 p.m. – Coverage of SpaceX Dragon spacecraft deorbit burn, re-entry, and splashdown. Splashdown scheduled no earlier than 12:17 a.m. Monday, Sept. 4.
