NASA expected to give update on stranded astronauts' rescue mission

Daily Mail  

NASA is bringing forward its rescue mission for its two stranded astronauts amid mounting political pressure. Insiders say the space agency will bring Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore home around March 19 — about two weeks earlier than the original early April return. But the Crew-9 spacecraft cannot bring the Starliner and Crew-9 astronauts back to Earth until SpaceX's Crew-10 mission arrives at the ISS. The SpaceX Crew-10 mission was initially scheduled to launch this month, but a technical issue with the new Dragon capsule SpaceX intended to use prompted NASA to push the launch back to March. At this point, if NASA waited for C213 to be ready to launch the Crew-10 mission, the astronauts currently on board the ISS 'would start to approach 'redlines' on food, water and other supplies.'
