Test-pilots Barry ‘Butch’ Wilmore and Sunita Williams set out on an eight-day trip back on 5 June
The two astronauts who have been stranded in space for 70 days are still playing the waiting game while stuck on the International Space Station (ISS).
NASA test-pilots Barry ‘Butch’ Wilmore, 61, and Sunita Williams, 58, set out on an eight-day trip on 5 June.
However, this excursion into space has ended up being extended – drastically – after the new Boeing Starliner capsule that was supposed to bring them home experienced a number of technical issues.
As a result, the pair have been trapped on the ISS while they wait for NASA to come up with some kind of solution to get them back down to Earth.
