Quick Glance: NASA Plans Astronaut Return from Extended Space Mission
- NASA is expected to soon announce when and how to bring back two astronauts stranded in space for over two months after launching on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft. Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams launched in early June for a mission intended to last just over a week, but technical issues forced an extended stay.
- Engineers and technical experts are currently reviewing data to consider various options for the astronauts' return to Earth. Ken Bowersox, NASA's associate administrator, indicated that the analysis should be completed next week, followed by a formal review, potentially at the end of next week or early the following week.
- NASA must decide whether to fly Wilmore and Williams back on the Starliner or use a SpaceX Dragon capsule. If they choose SpaceX, the astronauts would remain on the International Space Station for an additional six months. NASA could modify the upcoming Crew-9 mission to accommodate their return in February.
- No decision has been made yet, but it is vital to finalize a plan soon to manage space station resources effectively. During their extended mission, Wilmore and Williams have engaged in scientific experiments and maintenance tasks. Joe Acaba from NASA emphasized that astronauts rely on the expertise of engineers and will follow the necessary instructions.
NASA chief will make the final decision on how Starliner crew flies home: "I especially have confidence since I have the final decision."
