US Space Agency NASA has reportedly delayed the return of two astronauts, Sunita Williams and Barry Butch Wilmore, from the International Space Station (ISS) for the third time, thereby raising concerns that the crew could be "stranded". According to reports, the astronauts have been stranded in space due to an alleged malfunction on board the Boeing Starliner. Reportedly, the Boeing Starliner's trip home has been postponed as the crew asses a series of helium leaks. Notably, similar leaks had delayed the first crewed launch of the ship multiple times. If reports are to be believed, Elon Musk's SpaceX could join the rescue mission to bring the NASA astronauts home. However, an official announcement regarding this is awaited.
