In a hilarious twist of cosmic misfortune, NASA astronaut Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams find themselves stuck in space longer than a relationship on Tinder.
Initially set for an eight-day trip to the International Space Station (ISS) aboard Boeing’s Starliner, they’ve been orbiting for a whopping 63 days. To add insult to gravity-defying injury, NASA is considering a contingency plan that could keep them up there until 2025.
That’s right, folks—they might be spending more time in space than it takes to binge-watch every episode of Star Trek.
Meanwhile, Boeing is reassuring everyone of Starliner’s ‘capability and flight rationale’ in what can only be described as galactic levels of optimism.
