Indian-origin astronaut Sunita Williams and her crewmate Butch Wilmore are unexpectedly extending their stay on the International Space Station (ISS) due to technical glitches in the Boeing Starliner spacecraft. Initially set to return on June 26, their return date is now uncertain. The Starliner, on its maiden voyage, has faced multiple delays and is now dealing with helium leaks and thruster malfunctions. Allegations have emerged that both NASA and Boeing knew of these issues but proceeded with the mission. Despite the challenges, NASA assures that the astronauts have sufficient supplies and are working to resolve the issues for a safe return.
