Indian-American astronaut Sunita Williams and her colleague Butch Wilmore are currently stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) after their planned eight-day mission was extended to eight months due to technical issues with their Boeing Starliner spacecraft. The Starliner returned to Earth safely, but NASA deemed it unsafe for the astronauts to return, citing helium leaks and thruster failures. Despite the unexpected delay, both astronauts expressed their contentment with life on the ISS, with Williams stating, 'This is my happy place,' while Wilmore emphasized that they felt privileged to remain in space. The astronauts are set to return to Earth in February 2025 aboard a SpaceX Crew-9 mission. They also highlighted that they will be able to vote in the upcoming 2024 US presidential election from space, a unique aspect of their extended stay. Both astronauts reiterated that they do not feel let down by NASA or Boeing, acknowledging the importance of safety in their situation.
