, the exact date for Crew-3's return has not yet been set. But it will be soon, and the astronauts are excited.

"I can't wait to see my wife and kids," Marshburn said."I get goosebumps just thinking about actually that moment of getting to see them. To see the pictures of my kids, how much they've grown in six months — they're younger, it's pretty amazing and makes you realize how much you missed."The crew shared fun details of their journey through space, including Chari's mustache, which he said he grew while in space as part of an Air Force tradition.

Other than Marshburn, the crew was made up of rookie flyers making their first visit to the station. They told Space.com during the same news conference that they are eager to return to space, although they might do things a little differently next time. She added that she'll carry lessons the crew learned early in this mission to future flights."You feel a lot of pressure, when you first get up here trying to keep up with all the tasks," she said."We have really busy schedules, and when you're doing something for the first time, it always takes longer."
