NASA pilots have been stranded on the International Space Station for nine weeks after what was meant to be a simple goal lasting less than two months. Elon Musk has repeatedly claimed that former President Joe Biden refused his offer to bring them household first, supposedly because it would have made Donald Trump and his supporters “look great”.

Wilmore and Suni Williams launched from Cape Canaveral on June 4, 2024, aboard Boeing’s Starliner capsules for its maiden voyage, just to experience propeller problems and gas leakage. They’ve been stranded on the ISS ever after, as the Starliner was sent back to Earth without the team.  ,
 , Last year, one of the stranded pilots confirmed Musk’s accounts.
During a digital press conference next week, a Washington Post reporter asked,” Elon Musk has said that he made the offer to provide you guys up earlier and that it was denied … Is that correct”?
” I can only suggest that what Elon Musk says is completely factual”, astronomer Barry Wilmore replied. ” I don’t understand all those particulars, and I don’t think any of us truly can give you the truth that even that you would be hoping for”.
Luckily, their long wait to return house is almost over. NASA’s SpaceX Crew-10 has arrived in Florida to make for Wednesday’s release aboard a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft, which may ultimately take astronauts Wilmore and Suni Williams up from the International Space Station.
Wearing blue trip suit, the four Crew-10 users landed Friday evening at Kennedy Space Center in a white-and-blue NASA Gulfstream V flight, greeting about 55 media members and a small force of company officials.
” Man, it’s so amazing to fly into this getting band knowing that we don’t have a return seat up to Houston”, NASA astronaut and Crew-10 captain Anne McClain said, standing alongside the jet and her companions.
” We are going to take a little bit of an adventure before we go back”, said McClain, who is a U. S. Army colonel and OH-58D Kiowa Warrior helicopter pilot.

The crew includes NASA astronaut McClain, pilot Nichole Ayers—a U. S. Air Force major and F-22 Raptor pilot—along with mission specialists Takuya Onishi from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency and Kirill Peskov from Roscosmos.
Crew-10 will launch aboard the Dragon Endurance spacecraft, heading for low-Earth orbit before docking with the ISS around 10 a. m. Thursday. Before Crew-9 undocks on March 16, the astronauts will complete two days of handover activities aboard the ISS, weather permitting. Their Dragon capsule is set to splash down off Florida’s coast.
Crew-9 has spent the past six months conducting science and maintenance, and Crew-10 is eager to welcome them home. NASA officials emphasized the importance of Crew-10’s mission, which includes bringing Wilmore and Williams home. If delays occur, backup launch windows are available Thursday and Friday.
