@vt.physics: Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, who rode on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft on June 5 2024, are currently stranded in space. They should have flown Starliner back to Earth in June, a week after launching in it. But thruster failures and helium leaks prevented their journey home. They are presently spending extra time on the International Space Station, awaiting their (potential) return on a SpaceX Dragon craft in February 2025. #Science #news #space #astronauts #Astronomy
