In the end, whatever Elon Musk and Donald Trump insist on insisting, the astronauts Barry “Poach” Wilmur and Sonita Williams have never commented, and they did not penetrate into space, and certainly they were not abandoned or maroon.
The world heard on Monday, for the first time, since they returned to Earth two weeks ago, from NASA astronauts whose journey has turned for 10 days to the International Space Station (ISS) last summer to Audisie nine months. Their story was at odds with the narration of the White House.
William and Williams were talking to correspondents at a press conference in Houston, hours after A. A shared look on Fox NewsAnd she confirmed again that they did not feel neglect or needed to rescue, the president insisted that it was necessary.
Instead, they said, they calmly assumed duties as members of the space station’s crew – “planning for something, and preparing for another,” Wilmor said – while a political storm on their situation retreated on the ground.
If there is anything, a pair of veteran space publications seemed a little confused, or he was very unaware of the anger that followed his forced and lengthy stay in the exciting focus 250 miles above Earth, caused by technical failure on board on board Boeing Starlener, which returned in September without September.
At the press conference, NASA called for discussing the scientific activities carried out by the astronauts during their period in space, Williams and Wilmore provided diplomatic answers to the questions designed to derive their ideas.
Wimor said, before returning to explain his formulation carefully about how they were allowed to train and their preparations to mutate smoothly from the roles of routine vehicle pilots on routine aircraft.
“The plan was launched when we planned it. But because in light of the human space, we are preparing for any number of emergency situations. This is a winding path. You never know where you will go.”
Earlier, in an interview of Fox, he returned to Mousk’s wrong claim, Her amplification TrumpThe astronauts “were abandoned in space by the Biden administration.” If they felt stumbling or cut off the paths or maroon, the interview, Bill Hemmar, asked.
Wimour said: “Any of these characteristics, it is very wide in its definition.”
Therefore, in some respects, we were stuck, in some respects, perhaps we had cut it off, but based on how they had erased, until we left and forgot in orbit, we were not anywhere near that at all.
“Stalled? Well, we could not return home the way we planned. But in the big plan for things, we were not stuck. We planned and trained. Let me comment on this other. [claim]You know, “They failed in you.” from? Who are they? “
Williams was also hesitant to kick political football. In orbit, she said, her focus was only on the work you need to do.
“You may get a few columns … you can do your job employees, right, and therefore don’t really realize what is going on there,” she said.
“I hate to say that the world may not go around, but we are going around the world, something like that. But I think we were really focused on what we were doing and trying to be part of the team. Of course, we heard some things …”
The third US space pioneer at the press conference, crew 9 Nick The Hague, who returned to Earth with Williams and Wilmmore, copied his colleague in the crew.
He said: “Politics, somewhat, do not make it there when we try to make operational decisions.” As a leader [I’m] Responsible for the safety of this crew safely. “
MUSK, founder of SPACEX, NASA main contractor, pay the story, With no evidenceThe astronauts have been effectively detained in space by Baiden for the political advantage. It was a Spacex dragon capsule that eventually brought them back to Earth, but it was an ISS spacecraft for several months, and no one said Trump was the command of Musk “to go to get brave astronauts.”
The billionaire became involved in a hot online conflict with the Danish astronaut Andreas Muginsen due to claims, and later attacked Mark and Sakut Kelly, both retired astronauts and former democratic Senator in Arizona, for his invitation.
As for the troubled Starliner, whose future is doubtful, where Boeing and NASA engineers continue to assess helium leakage and control issues that brought its mission prematurely to an early end, both Williams and Welmmore said they are happy to fly on it again.
Wimour said, as the leader of the Starlener mission, that there are questions that he wished to ask during the trip that he believed that he had achieved various results, and “some shortcomings in tests, the shortcomings of preparation, that we did not expect.” Astron Pioneers will meet Boeing on Wednesday to give a direct certificate.
He said that the entire experience was a familiar educational curve of those in “the difficult job in which we all participate.”
“Can you direct the fingers? I don’t want to direct the fingers. I hope no one wants to direct the fingers. We don’t want to look back and say,” A shame, we want to look and say, “to make the future more productive and better.”
“This is the way I look at. What I think is how the nation should look.”
