The Telegraph: Astronauts on eight-day mission to space station could be stuck until 2025
Two NASA astronauts, Barry Wilmore and Sunita Williams, are stuck on the ISS after Boeing's Starliner mission hit critical snags. With hopes pinned on a future SpaceX Crew-9 rescue, they might be floating indefinitely until February 2025, adding to the ISS's cramped quarters.
