NASA astronaut Sunita Williams remains in space past her scheduled return due to issues with the Boeing Starliner spacecraft. ISRO Chief Dr. S. Somanath confirmed that India currently cannot assist with the rescue, which may involve US or Russian spacecraft. NASA is exploring the possibility of using SpaceX’s Crew-9 mission for their return, potentially delaying it until early 2025. Dr. Somanath assured that health concerns are manageable and radiation levels are not a significant issue.
