What the coverage shows

All five outlets frame the story as a live return and splashdown for NASA’s Crew-12, with consistent mention of the four-person crew and the Pacific or California landing area. AP and CNN focus on scheduled live coverage, while Reuters uses the departure from the ISS as its angle. NPR is the only outlet to foreground the mission’s eight-month duration and the crew’s work in space, and ABC News adds the Los Angeles location and mission totals such as 235 days and nearly 3,800 orbits.
