Barry Wilmore and Sunita Williams, who, due to technical problems, spent nine months instead of eight days at the International Space Station, was successfully restored to Earth.
US president Donald Trump is ready to pay from his pocket recently to return from the International Space Station (ISS) to astronauts for their overtime. On Friday, March 21, the American leader was stated at a press conference at the White House.
Sehita Williams and Butch Wilmore, who remained in the ISS for 286 days, returned to Earth on March 18, 2025. Their ship was safely brought to the Gulf of Mexico, on the coast of Tallahasi in Florida.
After returning, the New York Times wrote that during the flight, astronauts, like other civil servants, received a “day -to -day” for $ 5 on working business journeys.
“No one told me about it. If I had to, I would pay out of my pocket. I would take care of everything,” Trump replied a message that astronauts would not receive payment on Overtime.
Wilmore and Williams went on June 5, 2024. It is expected that the mission will only last eight days and the astronauts will return to June 13-14. But the ship found a problem with the machines. As a result, on their mission, they made 4576 revolutions around the world.
Earlier it was reported that Hurricane Milton forced NASA to postpone the return of the Spacex Crew Dragon personnel from the International Space Station.
