Two NASA astronauts and a Russian cosmonaut, who have been stuck in space since June, will have to remain at the International Space Station (ISS) even longer.
Their mission, originally scheduled for eight days, will now be extended to more than nine months.
NASA announced that the astronauts will return to Earth following the arrival of Crew-10, which has been delayed until late March 2025.
The delay is due to the need to complete processing on a new Dragon spacecraft for the mission.
