NASA addressed reports of "strange noises" heard by astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry Wilmore aboard Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, currently docked at the International Space Station (ISS). Wilmore first reported the pulsating sounds from the spacecraft's speaker system. NASA explained that the noise resulted from an audio configuration issue between the ISS and Starliner. The agency assured that the feedback had no technical impact on the crew, the spacecraft, or station operations. Starliner is scheduled to undock from the ISS on September 7, with Williams and Wilmore returning to Earth in February 2025 aboard a SpaceX Dragon capsule.
