NASA and Spacex have launched the Crew-10 mission that will allow astronauts stuck on the International Space Station (ISS), Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, to return to Earth.
Blocked for over nine months on the International Space Station (ISS), two astronauts can hope to return home after the Friday launch of a crew exchange mission. A Falcon 9 rocket of the Space X company took off by the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, is transporting a team of four members direct to the orbital invamping.
Initially scheduled for Wednesday, the take -off was canceled at the last minute due to a technical problem with the ground support system. Since then, an inspection and an “air bag” has been carried out that probably caused the problem was evacuated, said NASA.
Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, two American astronauts blocked in the International Space Station (ISS) since last June, to return to Earth. They could undertake this return next Wednesday, a few days after the arrival of the new crew, aboard a space space Spacex – and not the Boeing Starliner device that had transported them and who had suffered faults.
