    I’m curious, what’s the food and water situation like for these astronauts?

      They should be good. Cygnus capsule arrived on Tuesday. Was a regularly scheduled resupply. They are using supplies faster. But there is always safety stock.

        That’s great! Everyone was joking about the doors falling off of Starliner, but I still find it unbelievable that these poor people are actually stuck for 8 months.

          That option is the longest possible of around 5 NASA covered yesterday. So of course it’s the one the media is focusing on today.

          The update yesterday was over an hour long and had much better news.
