In this episode of *While We Were Distracted*, we explore the dramatic turn of events as two NASA astronauts are stranded on the International Space Station due to major technical issues with Boeing’s Starliner. Originally meant for an 8-day mission, astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry Wilmore now find themselves awaiting a rescue from SpaceX. With propulsion failures and helium leaks in Boeing's Starliner, NASA has turned to SpaceX and their reliable Crew Dragon capsule to bring the astronauts home safely.
We discuss the rise of SpaceX, the evolution of private spaceflight, and the shifting dynamics in aerospace as Elon Musk’s SpaceX becomes NASA’s new go-to. Join us for a deep dive into this high-stakes mission, the challenges Boeing faces, and what this might mean for the future of space exploration.
