NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore expressed gratitude for their extended stay aboard the International Space Station (ISS) after their return on the Boeing Starliner was delayed due to thruster issues and helium leaks. The Starliner spacecraft returned to Earth uncrewed on September 6, prompting NASA to decide that it was too risky for the astronauts to return on it. Both astronauts are now fully integrated into the ISS crew and will return home in early 2024 via a SpaceX Dragon capsule instead. They emphasized their professionalism and adaptability, stating they do not fret over things beyond their control. Williams highlighted the unique opportunity to fly in two different spacecraft during their missions, while Wilmore assured they were not disappointed by the situation, focusing instead on their experiences in space. Their Crew-9 mission is set to launch later this month, aiming for a February return.
