NASA Delays Rescue Mission for Stranded Starliner Astronauts Until February

NASA has announced that the rescue mission for two astronauts stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) will be delayed until February, citing safety concerns and technical challenges. The astronauts, Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, were initially scheduled to return to Earth in June after an eight-day mission aboard the Boeing-built Starliner capsule. However, ongoing technical issues with the Starliner, including helium leaks and thruster malfunctions, have extended their stay on the ISS for several months.

NASA managers will play it safe and wait until February. . .
