While members of the ISS crew were preparing capsules for deboarding, the Hague could be seen floating all around while wearing masks, a hood, pants and socks.
“NASA astronaut Anne McClen and Nicole Aires, Jacksa (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Takua Onici, and Roskosmos Cosmonot Kiril Peskov said at 1:35 AM Edt between Space Station and Spacex Dragon Spacecraft at the International Space Station.”
