NASA has assured the public that astronaut Sunita Williams is safe and healthy despite concerns raised by a doctor about her appearance after over 150 days aboard the International Space Station (ISS). Meanwhile, four Crew-8 astronauts who returned from a lengthy 235-day mission were hospitalized shortly after landing due to unspecified medical issues, with NASA citing privacy concerns for not disclosing details. One astronaut was kept overnight but is reportedly in stable condition, while the other three were released the same day. NASA has faced scrutiny over its handling of astronaut health, especially following a series of safety concerns regarding the ISS and SpaceX operations.
