Bill Ingalls/NASA Photos from the International Space Station captured the historic landing of SpaceX's first crewed mission from 250 miles above Earth. The photos from space show the boats that swarmed the capsule after splashdown — many of them civilian onlookers. A US Coast Guard statement obtained by CBS said "numerous boaters" ignored instructions to leave the area, "putting themselves and those involved in the operation in potential danger."

NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley, tucked inside SpaceX's Crew Dragon spaceship, survived a fiery plunge through Earth's atmosphere on Sunday.
