Daughter of Astronaut Speaks Out After Mission Gets Extended

When the Starliner space capsule blasted off in June, it was set to be an eight-day mission. Now, astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams will be stuck in space until next February, which extends the mission to eight months. The spacecraft developed helium leaks and thruster issues. NASA is calling on Elon Musk's SpaceX to come to their rescue. Inside Edition's Les Trent spoke to Wilmore's daughter, Daryn.

"extended" bro they were only supposed to be up there for a week

[Ahmed-zwi]

The "Can we say they're stranded yet" is so real 😂😂

[heatsfans]

Why they let Boeing get away with so much

[kennymiles]

Glad to see they ain't bothered by it. I wonder how much they paid extra to their families to be this calm.

[juwanpompey]

At this point I wouldn’t trust Boeing to make me a paper airplane at this point 😂

Should've asked her to blink twice if she was in danger.

Putting the Daughter on the news as damage control. I bet he's well pist off. I about spat my tea out when she said he's happy, he can do flips. 😂😂

[anneatwoodlawn]

"they can do flips as much as they want" was the flag for me 😂😂😂

he should get a letter from the governor he doesn't have to pay taxes for a year

Astros: See you in a few days fam.
NASA: Best we can do is 8 months.

"ok so here's your script, just give us a big confident smile and read what we gave you!!...and ACTION!"

[TalesoftheMidnightrealm]

Yay they get to do flips for 8 months LMFAO

[suryatkurma]

Takes a strong heart to be stranded out in the space not knowing how things will turn out

[HartPv]

Hurdling through space at 17, 000 mph might be considered continual state of "imminent danger"

[iStorm-myfp]

Why haven't we heard from the astronauts?

[AtarahDerek]

So no one's going to talk about the fact that they need 30 times the oxygen they took with them in order to survive?

[BooBahh-uhjk]

I hope Boeing doesn't murder the daughter

[AA-ylwq]

Seems like they’re having fun at home without him.
Wishing the pair a safe return to earth

[johnmcrobbie]

What no way it could be Boeing, they have the best track record and don't kill or silence workers or whistleblowers
