Two astronauts who were supposed to be up there for about eight days are probably going to be in space for eight months due to a series of technical issues. Veteran astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams sailed away on Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft for a test flight to the International Space Station in June, but NASA has decided to send the Starliner back to Earth empty.
