Two NASA astronauts who have been stranded at the International Space Station since June

are officially scheduled to return home in March following a request from President Donald Trump to SpaceX CEO Elon Musk to expedite plans to bring the astronauts home. Astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore arrived at the International Space Station in June 2024 for what was initially planned for a week-long trip on a Boeing Starliner flight. The spacecraft, however, returned without Williams and Wilmore after NASA decided it was too risky.
