NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who launched on Boeing's Starliner for a 10-day mission in June 2024, spent 9 months stranded on the ISS after their spacecraft returned without them. NASA has now scheduled their return for March 16 aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon. The delay was due to technical issues with Starliner, forcing them into an extended stay. Their relief crew, SpaceX Crew-10, will launch on March 12, allowing Crew-9 to return with them. NASA officials confirmed the long-awaited homecoming, marking the end of their unintended marathon mission.
