The troubled spacecraft conducted a “bull's-eye landing,” but NASA officials still say they made the right decision to leave its astronauts on the ISS out of an abundance of caution
Both of these astronauts were multiple-mission space veterans before they left. They have space shuttle experience. Sunita has prior command experience on ISS. These two are basically the most veteran professionals that NASA has on the roster.
They have now been resupplied with clothing on a Progress module. I think it was like 45 days before that showed up.
They have both stated that they’re happy for more time on orbit, and I’m mostly inclined to believe them.
