NASA plans to return stranded astronauts from space earlier than schedule

China Daily  

LOS ANGELES -- NASA and SpaceX are accelerating the target launch and return dates for the upcoming crew rotation missions to and from the International Space Station, which will bring the agency's stranded astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore back home. The Crew-9 mission, consisting of Williams, Wilmore, NASA astronauts Nick Hague along with Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, is planned for return to Earth following a several day handover period with the newly arrived Crew-10 crew. The Crew-10 mission will carry NASA astronauts Anne McClain, and Nichole Ayers, Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency astronaut Takuya Onishi, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov, to the space station. The earlier launch opportunity is available following a decision by mission management to adjust the agency's original plan to fly a new Dragon spacecraft for the Crew-10 mission that requires additional processing time, according to NASA.
