NASA astronauts 'Butch and Suni' emerge from recovery after Starliner mission
Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, the US astronauts left on the International Space Station last year by Boeing's troubled Starliner capsule, are on the up after returning to Earth in March, emerging from weeks of physical therapy to ramp up work with Boeing and various NASA programs.
Wilmore and Williams, who set off for an eight-day Starliner test flight that turned into a nine-month stay in space, have undergone a 45-day readaptation period to recondition their muscles, balance, and other bodily functions affected by long-term spaceflight. They’ve spent at least two hours daily with NASA’s medical team while also resuming work with Boeing’s Starliner program, NASA’s Houston-based ISS division, and agency researchers.
