The astronauts rescued by Elon Musk after being in space for nine months rebuffed a Fox News reporter’s efforts to mete out blame for their predicament.
“Based on how they were couching this—that we were left and forgotten and all that—we were nowhere near any of that at all,” astronautButch Wilmore told host Bill Hemmer on America’s Newsroom Monday. “In the big scheme of things, we weren’t stuck. We were planned, trained.”
Wilmore and Sunita Williams lifted off for an eight-day test flight on Boeing’s new Starliner spacecraft in June, but technical issues on the capsule required them to hunker down on the International Space Station until March 18, when a Crew Dragon capsule from Musk’s SpaceX brought them home.
