NASA weighs options for bringing stranded astronauts home

Season 2024 Episode 228 | 5m 21s

NASA and Boeing are grappling with how best to bring two U.S. astronauts back to Earth. Originally planned to last just eight days, leaks and other technical issues suffered by Boeing's Starliner spacecraft on its way to the International Space Station have delayed the planned return flight by more than two months. That has left two astronauts stuck in space. Miles O’Brien reports.
