    Here's a timeline of Sunita Williams & Barry Wilmore’s 9-month space saga

    After months of floating among the stars, NASA astronauts Sunita "Suni" Williams and Barry "Butch" Wilmore are finally heading home. Their return to Earth is just days away, but their incredible journey began nearly nine months ago. What was supposed to be a brief 10-day mission aboard Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft quickly turned into an unexpected adventure in space. The pair’s mission to the International Space Station (ISS) was originally planned to be short and sweet. However, a series of delays and unforeseen challenges kept them in orbit far longer than anyone expected. What was meant to be a quick trip became a nine-month stay on the ISS, turning their journey into one for the history books. Let’s take a closer look at the twists and turns that turned their brief mission into an extraordinary extended stay in space.
