After experiencing some technical issues with Boeing's Starliner space capsule, a group of NASA astronauts found themselves stranded in space at the International Space Station (ISS) [1]. The astronauts, including Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, were confident that the Starliner would be able to bring them back to Earth safely despite the unexpected delay in their return [2]. Delays in the Starliner's return were attributed to thruster issues and technical glitches, pushing back their anticipated return date from July to August [3] [4].

The stranded astronauts expressed optimism about the situation and voiced their confidence in the Starliner's ability to successfully complete the journey back to Earth [5]. They mentioned that they were still hopeful even though their return was delayed, showcasing a positive outlook on the circumstances [6]. The astronauts reiterated their trust in the spacecraft and the team working to resolve the issues faced during the mission [7].

Despite the challenges faced by the astronauts, they remained upbeat and reportedly enjoyed their time in space while they waited for the situation to be resolved [8]. The delay raised concerns about the impact on the crew's well-being and the resources available on the ISS [9]. However, the astronauts stayed positive, emphasizing their unwavering confidence in the Starliner's capabilities to safely return them to Earth [10].

While the exact date of the return to Earth remained uncertain, NASA maintained its expectations for Boeing's Starliner to successfully complete the mission and bring the astronauts back home [11]. The stranded astronauts on the ISS were continuously monitored, and updates were provided as the situation progressed to ensure their safety and well-being throughout the extended mission [12].
