Headline: NASA Astronauts' Return Delayed Due to Boeing Capsule Issues

Caption: Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams will remain on the ISS as engineers address issues with Boeing's Starliner capsule, delaying their return, AP reports. The astronauts' return has been postponed due to thruster failures and helium leaks in the Starliner capsule, which were discovered after docking at the ISS. NASA has not announced a return date for the astronauts, stating they will bring them back only when it is safe and all issues are resolved. NASA's Steve Stich mentioned that SpaceX's Dragon capsule could be a contingency plan if Starliner's problems persist.
