Two astronauts who were supposed to be up there for about eight days are probably going to be in space for eight months due to a series of technical issues. Veteran astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams sailed away on Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft for a test flight to the International Space Station in June, but NASA has decided to send the Starliner back to Earth empty. Now Whitmore and Williams will leave the ISS in February on SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft as part of the Crew-9 mission.
