Sunita Williams' Starliner impacted hospitalised NASA astronauts' late return. Now, they reveal post-splashdown symptoms

Hindustan Times  

NASA is still not open to revealing why one of its astronauts had to be mysteriously hospitalised overnight after the delayed return of SpaceX’s Crew-8 mission members on October 25. In this image from video provided by NASA, astronauts Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt and Jeanette Epps participate in a news conference at the agency’s Johnson Space Center in Houston on Friday, Nov. 8, 2024. Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt and Jeanette Epps led the NASA news conference on Friday, November 8, while their fellow crewmate, Russian cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin, did “not participate because of his travel schedule,” according to an official news release. But the little things like just sitting in a hard chair … My backside has not really sat in a hard thing for days.” NASA's SpaceX Crew-8 astronauts Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt, and Jeanette Epps, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Alexander Grebenkin, depart their crew quarters for the launch pad before their mission to the International Space Station, aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, U.S., March 3, 2024. On top of that, a mystery quartet member had to remain at the hospital overnight, followed by the bare minimum update of them being “in stable condition” and “under observation as a precautionary measure.” Barratt, a medical doctor and the veteran Crew-8 pilot, doubled down on prioritising “medical privacy,” as he said that the details will eventually come out “in the fullness of time.” He asserted, “Medical privacy and the processes we have going on right now negate our ability to.” While the Crew-8 was stuck in space, Williams and Wilmore’s Starliner was sent back to the home planet empty to prioritise their safety.
