Sunita williams: Astronaut Sunita Williams and Buch Wilmore’s return to the land have been postponed once again. This happened due to technical flaw in the rocket launch that was to be launched to bring these two back.
On Wednesday (March 12), the rocket Falcon-9 of Allen Musk’s company ‘SpaceX’ was about to be launched with four space scientists. These four scientists would replace Sunita Williams and Buch Wilmore already present at the International Space Station. There was only an hour left to be launched, but technical flaw was seen in the rocket’s hydraulic system and ground support clamp arm and then its launch was postponed. NASA and SpaceX later informed that the crew-10 mission’s international space station has been canceled.
Two more days launch window
Falcon-9 rocket was to be launched from the launch Complex 39-A of Kennedy Space Center in Florida. However, the launch window is also available today i.e. on Thursday (March 13) and Friday (March 14). If SpaceX fixes these technical flaws as soon as possible, then Falcon 9 rockets can be launched this week. If everything goes well, Sunita Williams and Buch Wilmore will return to Earth by March 19.
