Summary

Elon Musk accused former president Joe Biden of stranding NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams on the ISS “for political reasons,” prompting Danish astronaut Andreas “Andy” Mogensen to label the claim “a lie.”

“What a lie. And from someone who complains about lack of honesty from the mainstream media,” wrote the 48-year-old European Space Agency astronaut.

Musk called Mogensen “fully retarded” and claimed SpaceX could’ve rescued the astronauts months ago, without evidence.

NASA refuted Musk’s abandonment claim, calling it baseless.
