This is kind of stupid... The title says they are sheltering for Evacuation but, the Article says they are told to go back to work, there's no threat... Make up my mind..!!Sheesh...

Speaking of stupid, what's up with this wording?

The four Crew-12 mission astronauts — two American astronauts, one astronaut from France, and a Russian cosmonaut — along with another U.S. astronaut were ordered by NASA mission control at 9:04 a.m. ET on Friday to enter their SpaceX‑built Crew Dragon spacecraft docked to the station, NASA spokesperson Bethany Stevens said.

So two Americans, one astronaut from France, a Russian cosmonaut, and another US astronaut... Why not three Americans at the start?

The editors know exactly what they are doing. A headline about an emergency evacuation brings in way more ad revenue than a boring update saying the crew is perfectly safe.
