Return of NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore from International Space Station further delayed until late March

Washington DC, 18/12: NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore’s return to Earth will be further delayed until at least late March, the agency said, taking what should have been an eight-day stay on the International Space Station to more than nine months.

The duo had traveled to the ISS in June for the test mission, but their return was extended by eight months to February, after the Boeing Starliner capsule they arrived on was deemed unfit to return them to Earth.
