NASA is currently evaluating the possibility of extending the stay of two astronauts at the International Space Station due to issues with their Boeing capsule. The astronauts, Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, were initially scheduled for a short mission but may now remain at the space station until early next year.
The decision to keep the astronauts at the space station comes after technical problems, including thruster failures and helium leaks, were encountered during the Starliner capsule's journey to the station. These issues have raised concerns about the capsule's ability to safely return to Earth.
