NASA is now shamefully lying for Donald Trump and Elon Musk.
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/nasa-reveals-astronauts-return-would-not-have-happened-without-trumps-interventionNASA spokeswoman Bethany Stevens credited President Donald Trump for securing the return of two astronauts stranded for more than nine months on the International Space Station.
"This is a huge win for the Trump administration. And it would not have happened without President Trump's intervention." Stevens said.
To be clear, the decision to make Butch and Suni a part of Crew 9 and return them in February or March of 2025 was made last year, before Trump was re-elected, because it was the most practical option. There was no political advantage for Joe Biden or Kamala Harris to delay their return... it would have been far more advantageous for them to move heaven and Earth to return them sooner.
Making Butch and Suni part of Crew 9 was a smart, efficient, and fiscally responsible decision... something that you would think Elon Musk, head of DOGE, would appreciate.
The whole idea that the astronauts were trapped at the ISS for political reasons is utter nonsense. It is just an example of how people fluff Trump's ego, and it is a really damaging move by NASA who has already had to defend their credibility for decades over stupid conspiracy theories.
