NASA announced on 17 December 2024 that the two astronauts, Barry E. Wilmore and Sunita Williams, stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) will have to stay there for longer. This is because the rescue Dragon-2 capsule for the SpaceX Crew-10 flight, has been delayed. The astronauts have been stuck at the ISS following safety concerns about the space capsule they flew there ( which returned to Earth without them). The Boeing Starliner performed its first crewed mission but left its crew stranded.
