You may have heard that astronauts Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita Williams may not be able to fly on the Boeing Starliner that will take them to the International Space Station. I think about this all the time in quiet moments—when I wake up in the morning, when I go hiking, when I take a shower.
Man, I was restless waiting for the bus and these two have been chilling for weeks and will probably continue to do so for months. I’m sure NASA can accomplish a lot of small missions, but there’s still a lot of time to kill when they’re stuck in that tin can. So I’ve come up with some suggestions on how to entertain themselves while they wait.
