NASA's Sunita Williams speaks out as Trump tasks Elon Musk to bring back stranded astronauts; ‘We initially thought it…’

Feb 02, 2025
Astronaut Sunita Williams, who was on a space mission, got stuck in space for eight months. She couldn't do basic things like walking. She was supposed to be in space for only eight days, but her spaceship had technical problems. Now she doesn't know how it feels to walk or sit down. She spoke to her classmates from space and said she hasn't laid down in a long time. She thought she would be back on Earth in a month, but it turned out to be much longer. Indian-American Williams and her crewmate Barry Wilmore were supposed to come back on a Boeing capsule, but it didn't work properly. President Trump asked Elon Musk to bring back the stranded astronauts. Musk's company SpaceX is now in charge of bringing back Williams and Wilmore safely. Before this, NASA had already planned for SpaceX to bring them back because the Boeing spacecraft had problems. Now, Williams and Wilmore will have to wait until at least late March to come home on the SpaceX Crew-9 spaceship. Trump hopes everything will be safe and Musk is working hard to get them back. This whole situation shows how complicated and difficult it can be to explore space and bring astronauts back safely. It's important to appreciate the hard work and risk that astronauts like Sunita Williams take when they go on space missions. They face challenges and dangers to explore the unknown and make new discoveries that can benefit all of us.
