On June 5, NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry “Butch” Wilmore launched a Boeing Starliner towards the International Space Station (ISS). Originally slated to travel to Earth aboard the Starliner on June 22, their trip was delayed to June 26 and then again last week to an indeterminate date.
The delay in the astronauts’ return is due to a series of helium leaks on the Boeing Starliner spacecraft, which NASA experts are presently investigating.
