Washington: Indian-American astronaut Sunita Williams’ space mission has been cancelled at the last minute. She was scheduled to travel to space for the third time on Tuesday. However, her journey was postponed before she could travel to space. Why has a pre-planned mission been postponed When will this space mission take place again? What do scientists say?
The capsule carrying the astronauts was ready for launch into orbit on Monday night. But the long-awaited first crude test flight of Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft was halted for at least 24 hours due to a technical snag on the Atlas V rocket. So this journey of CST-100 Starliner, which takes astronauts to the International Space Station (ISS), had to stop at the outset. Starliner’s attempt to send its first uncrude flight to the International Space Station in 2019 also failed.
