The saga of Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft continues, as the two astronauts onboard have now been marooned in the International Space Station for a staggering 50 days—nearly six times longer than their intended mission duration. During a press conference, NASA’s Commercial Crew Program Manager, Steve Stich, shared that the agency is still unable to provide a definitive date for their homebound journey.
Despite ongoing efforts to diagnose and address thruster failures and helium leaks, NASA is exercising caution and prioritizing the safety of the astronauts.
