Elon Musk Urged to Cut Nuclear Spending to Achieve $2 Trillion Savings

NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore successfully completed their first spacewalk together on Thursday, nearly eight months after arriving at the International Space Station (ISS). According to the Associated Press, the duo exited the station to perform maintenance and examine its exterior for potential microbial life that may have survived since the station's launch.
Wilmore, who stepped outside 260 miles above Spain, expressed excitement, stating, “Here we go.” Initially expected to stay just one week in June, the astronauts have remained aboard the ISS due to complications with Boeing's Starliner capsule, which experienced significant issues leading NASA to send it back to Earth without them. As their return is delayed until late March or early April by SpaceX, Williams and Wilmore’s mission will now extend to ten months. This marked Wilmore's first spacewalk on this mission, although both astronauts have participated in previous spacewalks during their careers.
Their extended stay highlights ongoing challenges in crew transportation to the ISS amid evolving space exploration partnerships.
