SpaceX Postpones Mission to Rescue Stranded Astronauts

SpaceX's crucial launch to safely bring home two astronauts has been delayed due to technical complications.


NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore remain in orbit as a result of the postponement of the SpaceX mission, originally set to launch from Cape Canaveral.

 

In a setback for space travel, SpaceX has announced a postponement of its mission aimed at returning two NASA astronauts to Earth. The launch, designed to facilitate a handover of new crew members to the International Space Station (ISS), was set to take off from Florida's Cape Canaveral Space Force Station but was delayed due to a hydraulic issue on the ground. With an alternate launch window opening this Thursday, hopes remain high for the eventual return of astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore. They had reached the ISS back in June but were unable to return home on a Boeing spacecraft, which was deemed unsafe for their journey. Current plans indicate that both astronauts could be home just days following the rescheduled SpaceX mission. This story is developing, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available. To stay informed, follow the latest updates or download the app for immediate notifications.
