why are you getting late
According to NASA officials, Elon Musk's company SpaceX needs more time to prepare the new capsule for flight. This schedule will be completed by the end of March. The US government agency also proposed the idea of using a different capsule of Elon Musk's company to launch the new crew Crew-10. They ultimately opted to extend the space stay of Williams and Wilmore, deciding to wait for the new capsule. At the same time, safety is being given priority instead of haste, which is taking more time.
Now the total duration of the mission will be 10 months.
Let us tell you that Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are stuck in space since flying in Boeing Starliner on June 5. Both were to return to Earth in a week. But the return mission was postponed after facing many problems including leaks and thruster malfunction in their spacecraft Starliner. Now when they will return by March April, their mission will be about 10 months. Both of them are being tested for patience to land from the International Space Station. On Tuesday itself, a new video of Sunita Williams has come. In which she is seen preparing for Christmas with fellow astronauts. Sunita looked very beautiful in Santa's dress.
