NASA, SpaceX launch mission to bring astronauts Sunita Williams, Butch Wilmore home

Hindustan Times  

NASA and SpaceX successfully launched a long-awaited crewed mission on Friday to bring back US astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, who have been stranded on the International Space Station for nine months. The four astronauts - NASA’s Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, JAXA astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov - are heading to the International Space Station on the Crew-10 mission to replace Sunita Williams, Butch Wilmore and two others. Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams have been stranded in space for nine months following their trip aboard Boeing’s Starliner. The mission has also become entangled in politics as US President Donald Trump and his adviser Elon Musk, SpaceX's CEO, blamed former president Joe Biden left the astronauts on the station for political reasons.
