In a remarkable demonstration of American ingenuity, SpaceX has officially embarked on a critical rescue mission to bring home two astronauts stranded aboard the International Space Station (ISS). The astronauts, Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, have been living on the ISS since early June, after a series of malfunctions crippled the Boeing Starliner spacecraft that was initially tasked with their return.
SpaceX has once again proven why it is NASA’s most reliable partner in space exploration, clearing two seats on an already planned Crew Dragon mission to accommodate the stranded astronauts. However, despite the success of this mission, the return journey will take time. Wilmore and Williams are not expected to touch down on Earth until early next year, prolonging their unplanned stay in space to nearly eight months.

After assessing the risks, NASA opted for a safer alternative—SpaceX’s Crew Dragon capsule, which has become the go-to vehicle for manned space missions.
