Arthur T Knackerbracket has found the following story:

On March 9, 2020, a Dragon cargo spacecraft arrived at the International Space Station carrying dozens of scientific experiments as a part of SpaceX's 20th cargo resupply mission. Now, Dragon heads home. On April 7, it is scheduled to undock from station, bringing samples, hardware and data from completed investigations back to Earth on its return trip.

Here are details on some of the investigations returning to the ground for further analysis and reporting of results.

    The article is worth a click, if only for the gif of the astronaut spinning some experiment equipment in the air. Zero gravity is crazy stuff.

    Maybe some value in having a capability to bring cargo from the ISS back down to the Earth.
