Astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry Wilmore left for the ISS in June last year .

They were supposed to be there for an eight-day mission but the spacecraft that took them encountered problems.

It was unsafe for them to return and the spacecraft came back down without them.

To get them back down to Earth , a SpaceX capsule was launched on Friday ( March 14 ) with four astronauts inside so they could take over from Williams and Wilmore .

But just before the capsule successfully docked with the ISS on Sunday (March 16 ), an 'alien' was spotted on NASA 's live feed.
