Rund eine Woche sollten Suni Williams und Barry Wilmore an Bord der ISS bleiben – aufgrund einer Panne wurden daraus gut neun Monate. Nun hat ihr Warten ein Ende.
Astronauts Suni Williams and Barry Wilmore, stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) for nine months due to technical issues with their Boeing "Starliner" spacecraft, have begun their return journey to Earth aboard a SpaceX "Crew Dragon." They are accompanied by Nick Hague and Alexander Gorbunow, who arrived at the ISS in September. Originally scheduled for a week-long mission, Williams and Wilmore's stay was extended after NASA deemed the "Starliner" unsafe for crewed return.
