NASA astronaut Sunita Williams will remain in space for six more months due to issues with the Boeing Starliner spacecraft. Her mother, Bonnie Pandya, expressed relief that NASA prioritized safety, saying, "I’m relieved they didn’t rush her return." Despite missing her daughter, whom she calls her best friend, Pandya is reassured knowing Williams is safe. "She’s doing fine and loves being in space," Pandya shared. Williams is happy to have another chance to view Earth from above, even though this might be her last mission. "I understand," Pandya said, acknowledging the challenges of space travel.
