NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry "Butch" Wilmore are experiencing further delays in their return from the International Space Station (ISS). 

NASA delays Sunita Williams' return to earth

Originally expected to return in February 2025, their return has now been postponed to late March or early April 2025.

NASA astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry "Butch" Wilmore are experiencing further delays in their return from the International Space Station (ISS). Originally scheduled for a brief mission, their stay has now been extended to nearly 10 months, with their return pushed back to Spring 2025.
&nbsp;
Initial Mission Plans and Setbacks
Williams and Wilmore launched aboard Boeing's Starliner on June 5, 2024, as part of its first crewed flight under NASA's Commercial Crew Program. The mission, initially intended to last just one week, aimed to evaluate the Starliner's performance in launch, docking, and landing phases. However, technical issues with the spacecraft forced an early return of the capsule to Earth&mdash;without the astronauts onboard&mdash;leading to significant delays in their planned journey back. 
Challenges with Return Timelines
Originally expected to return in February 2025, their return has now been postponed to late March or early April 2025. The delay arises from additional time required by SpaceX to prepare a new Crew Dragon capsule to accommodate the astronauts. NASA explored alternate options, including using a different SpaceX capsule, but ultimately decided to extend their stay until the new capsule is ready for launch.
&nbsp;
SpaceX Steps in to Provide a Solution
After deeming Boeing&rsquo;s Starliner unsuitable for the astronauts' return due to persistent malfunctions and safety concerns, NASA partnered with SpaceX to adjust its Crew-9 mission. SpaceX's Crew Dragon capsule will now bring Williams and Wilmore back to Earth, underscoring its pivotal role in NASA's current operations.
&nbsp;
Significance of Starliner&rsquo;s Mission Despite the setbacks, the Starliner mission marked a critical milestone as Boeing's first crewed flight. This mission was essential for NASA to evaluate the spacecraft's readiness for future crewed missions to the ISS. While the technical issues delayed its certification process, the mission provided valuable insights into its performance.
As NASA and its commercial partners address these challenges, Williams and Wilmore continue their extended tenure aboard the ISS, contributing to ongoing research and maintenance activities. Their eventual return aboard SpaceX's Crew Dragon is anticipated as a step toward resolving these operational hurdles.

In addition, NASA and ISRO have agreed to a joint mission to the International Space Station in the year 2024, said the official who spoke on condition of anonymity.

ISRO, NASA to sign Artemis Accords, send joint mission to ISS: White House

In addition, NASA and ISRO have agreed to a joint mission to the International Space Station in the year 2024, said the official who spoke on condition of anonymity.

India has decided to join the Artemis Accords, which brings like-minded countries together on civil space exploration, and NASA and ISRO have agreed to a joint mission to the International Space Station in 2024, the White House said Thursday.
&ldquo;On space, we will be able to announce that India is signing the Artemis Accords, which advance a common vision for space exploration for the benefit of all humankind,&rdquo; a senior administration official said hours before the meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Joe Biden in the Oval Office.
Grounded in the Outer Space Treaty of 1967 (OST), the Artemis Accords are a non-binding set of principles designed to guide civil space exploration and use in the 21st century. It is an American-led effort to return humans to the moon by 2025, with the ultimate goal of expanding space exploration to Mars and beyond.
The official said that NASA and the ISRO are developing a strategic framework for human spaceflight cooperation this year.

Hollywood star Tom Cruise has performed several deadly stunts on Earth, and now he is all set to head to space for his forthcoming film. As per reports, the actor has teamed up with &lsquo;The Bourne Identity director&rsquo; Doug Liman for a project that involves filming in space.
The duo has approached the Universal Filmed Entertainment Group (UFEG) for this movie and to perform the stunt in International Space Station. The news has been confirmed by Dame Donna Langley, the chairwoman of Universal Studios to the BBC.
&nbsp;If this plan goes well, Tom would be the first celebrity in the history to film a sequence on the International Space Station. Recently, a clip of unreleased footage from Tom Cruise&rsquo;s movie &lsquo;Top Gun: Maverick&rsquo; went viral in which he is seen standing on the biplane, only holding a rig and speaking to the camera.
On the work front, 'Top Gun: Maverick' is Tom Cruise&rsquo;s most successful movie of his career. The film earned more than $1.4 billion at the box office. He'll next feature in &lsquo;Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning - Part One and Two&rsquo;.&nbsp;

Three Russian cosmonauts returned safely on Thursday from a mission to the International Space Station.
The Soyuz MS-21 spacecraft carrying Oleg Artemyev, Denis Matveyev and Sergey Korsakov touched down softly at 4:57 p.m. (1057 GMT) at a designated site in the steppes of Kazakhstan about 150 kilometers (about 90 miles) southeast of the city of Zhezkazgan.
The trio arrived at the station in March.
For Artemyev, the mission marked a third space flight that has brought his total time spent in orbit to 561 days.
Matveyev and Korsakov each logged 195 days on their first missions.
As the Soyuz capsule was descending on a big striped red-and-white parachute under clear skies, Artemyev reported to the Mission Control that all members of the crew were feeling fine.
Helicopters support teams landed minutes after to recover the crew.

Samantha Cristoforetti, the Italian who holds the record for the longest uninterrupted spaceflight by a European astronaut is making waves for another piece of history she is a part of.
Cristoforetti is the first person to make a TikTok video on board the International Space Station (ISS).
She is Italy's first woman astronaut and on her second space mission Cristoforetti is helping TikTok reach new 'heights'.
In 2014, she travelled to space for the first time. Her mission lasted for 199 days--a record for the longest mission in space by a woman. Cristoforetti's record was broken in 2017 by Peggy Whitson.
She returned to space in 2022 and has a virtual audience following her moves on Earth.
Her TikTok videos range from launching from Earth, to settling in at the ISS. She also sprinkles in references from the sci-fi books The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
One video created in memory of the series' author Douglas Adams garnered over 17 million views on the video-blogging platform.
In the video, Cristoforetti shows viewers how a wet towel behaves in weightlessness, while declaring she is "a hoopy frood who always knows where her towel is" - a well-known quote among Hitchhikers fans.
Another video posted in May Cristoforetti gives her viewers a small tutorial for floating in space. Over the span of the 48-second video, she demonstrates different ways a person can float across the ISS ranging from beginner level to advanced techniques.
Cristoforetti's videos have a huge following and manage to more than a few thousand views with their jovial sense of style.

Four astronauts launched by SpaceX for NASA arrived at the International Space Station on Wednesday night.
It’s the first NASA crew comprised equally of men and women, including the first Black woman making a long-term spaceflight, Jessica Watkins.
“This is one of the most diversified, I think, crews that we’ve had in a really, really long time," said NASA's space operations mission chief Kathy Lueders.
The astronauts arrived at the space station just 16 hours after a predawn liftoff from Kennedy Space Center that thrilled spectators.
SpaceX has now launched five crews for NASA and two private trips in just under two years. Elon Musk's company is having an especially busy few weeks: It just finished taking three businessmen to and from the space station as NASA’s first private guests.
A week after the new crew arrives, the three Americans and German they’re replacing will return to Earth in their own SpaceX capsule.
Three Russians also live at the space station.
Both SpaceX and NASA officials stressed they're taking it one step at a time to ensure safety.
The private mission that concluded Monday encountered no major problems, they said, although high wind delayed the splashdown for a week.
SpaceX Launch Control wished the astronauts good luck and Godspeed moments before the Falcon rocket blasted off with the capsule, named Freedom by its crew.

Researchers in France's Bordeaux analysed&nbsp;nearly a dozen bottles of Chateau Petrus Pomerol wine that spent close to a year in space.
The wine, along with 320 snippets of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapevines, came back to Earth after spending a year aboard the International Space Station for agricultural research.
Preliminary results were announced on Wednesday, when scientists said that weightlessness did not ruin the wine, and it seemed to energise the vines.
The initiative is a part of a larger effort to make plants on Earth more resilient to climate change by exposing them to different and newer stresses and to understand the fermentation and ageing of wine better.
While tasting, some researchers said the wine had aromas of cured leather or a campfire. Such experiments could help scientists create sturdier vines on Earth and maybe pave the way for wine-making in space.
