Starliner returns to Earth without astronauts

In June 2024, astronauts Barry Wilmore and Sunita Williams traveled to the International Space Station (ISS) in a Starliner capsule made by Boeing. But as the capsule developed technical problems, it could not be used to bring the astronauts safely to Earth. So, the empty Starliner returned to Earth on September 6. The astronauts will return to Earth in February 2025 in a spacecraft made by the SpaceX company.
