Hope it is true and not AI.

They must be so sick of being up there.

Musk is incredible. Very kind thing to do.

[MotorCityBuck]

Do you need a Hug?🤡😂

Sitting in a tin can

[Jeff Chandler]

I’m praying for their safe return.

[Sacajaweau]

It’s not AI...you really can tell...takes a little practice.

[gitmo]

I’ve been in the ISS (on the ground, not in space) and it is very cramped quarters.

“Obama appointed federal district judge orders Musk to return NASA astronauts to ISS.”

[Sacajaweau]

Musk is hyper...we can see that. Wonder if he sleeps through the night?? How does he come down??

This administration has worn me out.....like totally....lol

[Jane Long]

I would LOL but....I would not put this past any of these asshole liberal “judges”, anymore.

[BradyLS]

GOOD ONE! 👍😄

In spite of all those two have endured; being stuck in this exospheric spiderweb due to a broken promise, they are expected to show “Happy Talk Skills” while on camera. That kind of diplomacy is a big ask of any human being.

Me? I am not worthy! I would not be patient or dignified or magnanimous. I would probably require deep sedation for most of the time.

[know.your.why]

They must be so sick of being up there.

What is it now...290ish days? In a weightless can with no way out. I would have no joke probably had a psychotic meltdown. How does anyone cope with that kind of confinement and remain in a mental state that would be considered functional?

Here’s an amazingly clear 13 minute video of the rendezvous, docking, and welcoming aboard of the crew. It takes several rotations after attaining orbit for the launch capsule to sync and catch up rotationally with the ISS. Each rotational orbit of the earth takes about 90 minutes while approximately 200 miles off planet. Now, let’s pray for as smooth a return as the launch and docking. I heard the two will take a couple of days to do the hand off to the new crew before they embark on their return.
