What’s up with the astronauts stranded in space? Neil deGrasse Tyson lends his perspective on Starliner’s failure which led to two astronauts being trapped in space longer than expected. Are the astronauts in danger?
Neil takes it back to the Apollo program where we learn about the incremental progress of each mission and the risks they took. How does this compare to other spaceship failures in real life and in movies? Neil breaks down the conditions of the astronauts for their additional six months and why they are equipped to handle it.
