All I know is.. we're bout to have the first space baby next year 😂

[morethan]

I would no longer be salty when my flight gets delayed. I'd think of these two unfortunate astronauts.

[morethan]

It'd be a bummer if they left the TV on at home, thinking they'd be back in 8 days.

[jaysonthespasian]

Not surprising since it's Boeing.

[erinmalone]

I would be having panic attacks 24/7. Stranded in space is worse than stranded at sea.

Hopefully they flew up there with 1years worth of food

Someone's entering the *"10 Mile High"* club 😉

Who knew the 100 tampon joke would come full circle? Next time, they might just send a lifetime supply—just in case!

[mclaurinisGODsSon]

As long as they are safe and survive this to land on Earth asap, then I'm sure everyone will be fine with it. Astronauts are mentally perfect.

Half of North America just lost their Facebook.

[TRU-LOV]

They can’t get them any sooner??? That doesn’t make sense to me

[vincitveritas]

The 'overtime' pay will make them rich lol

[InazumaKama]

Most people would go crazy in space u need gravity to breathe and stuff

[caroledwards]

How much $$$ are these two pplbeing paid for this extraordinary long delay in bringing them both safely back to earth? The overtime alone must be in the millions, plus pain and suffing, etc, etc. They better both have very good lawyers.

[EugeneLorey]

There might not be an Earth for them to return to.

[FirstLast.....]

Another disaster from DEI champion Boeing.

[pennyblackfeathercoutlee]

Holy crap NASA, !!
YOU CANT RESCUE THESE TWO From THE ISS, BUT YOU SENT MAN TO THE MOOM???? ***COUGHS*** BULL CRAP!!!

[debralowe]
