On Friday, SpaceX's Crew-10 mission launched to help bring back the two astronauts stranded at the International Space Station. Astronauts Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Suni Williams were supposed to just be at the ISS for eight days, but they've been stuck there since June 2024.
A SpaceX Dragon capsule, riding atop one of the company's Falcon 9 rockets, is carrying the four Crew-10 astronauts - NASA's Anne McClain and Nichole Ayers, Takuya Onishi of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Kirill Peskov - to orbit.
They are going to replace SpaceX's Crew-9, NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Roscosmos cosmonaut Aleksanr Gorbunov, who arrived in space in late September 2024. After the Crew-10 astronauts arrive at the ISS which is expected Saturday night at around 11:30 p.m. EDT, Wilmore and Williams are scheduled to depart on Wednesday as early as 4 a.m. EDT, along with Hague and Gorbunov.

Yes. There were reports that she was having problems with elimination. That is a long time for an unplanned trip.
And Slo Joe delayed it unnecessarily. Politics.
Joe should just stay out of sight. He has nothing to contribute.

Sadly, in today’s current political climate it’s often hard to tell satire from truth.

I know a space poop joke, but poop jokes aren’t my favorite.
They’re a solid #2 though.

Won’t be long now before he busts hell wide open.
Hell may have to enlarge itself to take the evil basstid in, they’ve had worse, so it’s most likely more than capable of handling a little dinky thing like King pedoPIG, the 1st.
