An eight day mission has turned out to be a prolonged stay in the space for Sunita Williams. She is currently stuck in the International Space Station with astronaut Barry Wilmore. Earlier, the spacecraft’s return was set for June 26 and before that it was scheduled to return on June 14.
In a statement, Steve Stich, manager of NASA's Commercial Crew Program, said, "We are taking our time and following our standard mission management team process," according to ABC News report. The launch date was later set for May 25. However, a small helium leak was found in the service module, which comprises support systems and instruments for operating a spacecraft, media reported. The Starliner arrived at the ISS on June 6.
