International Space Station

Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, the two astronauts stranded on the International Space Station (ISS), will have to wait even longer, NASA has announced.

The SpaceX crew that will ferry back in February two astronauts stranded on the International Space Station docked with the orbiting laboratory on Sunday, a live stream of the mission showed.

The Falcon 9 rocket took off at 1:17 pm (1717 GMT) from Cape Canaveral, Florida on Saturday, with the Crew-9 mission aboard a Dragon spacecraft making contact with the ISS at 5:30 pm Sunday.

Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams were supposed to stay in space for eight days, but will now remain there for eight months due to ongoing issues with the Starliner. These problems led to the difficult decision not to use this spacecraft to bring the two American astronauts back to Earth.

Astronaut Matthew Dominick, currently on the International Space Station (ISS), captured an impressive video of the Northern Lights.

In the astronaut’s timelapse video, it shows the Moon setting and the Sun rising amid “streams of red and green auroras.”

Suni Williams and Barry Wilmore were initially supposed to stay on the ISS for only one week, but they have now been in space for nearly three months.
