Two NASA astronauts face an extended stay aboard the ISS. Their Boeing Starliner encountered problems. A SpaceX rescue mission is scheduled for 2025.
Sunita Williams, currently aboard the International Space Station (ISS) for a six-month mission, is maintaining her physical and mental health through a variety of activities tailored to the unique environment of space. She engages in regular exercise using specialized equipment like the Advanced Resistive Exercise Device (ARED) to counteract muscle atrophy and bone density loss due to microgravity. For mental well-being, she participates in daily routines, communicates with family and friends via video calls, and enjoys hobbies like photography, capturing stunning images of Earth. Additionally, she follows a strict schedule that includes scientific experiments, which keeps her intellectually engaged. Her diet is carefully planned to meet nutritional needs in space, and she also practices mindfulness and relaxation techniques to manage stress. This comprehensive approach ensures she remains fit and mentally sharp during her extended stay beyond Earth.
