An astronaut from NASA had to be taken to the hospital after returning from a long stay at the International Space Station. The trip was supposed to last only eight months, but it got extended due to some issues with Boeing's capsule and Hurricane Milton. After landing in the Gulf of Mexico, one of
After a mission in space, one NASA astronaut ended up in the hospital. No one knows who it is or why they're there, but NASA says they're just being careful. Remember when astronaut Heidemarie Stefanyshyn-Piper got dizzy after a mission in 2006? Space travel can be tough on the body. The astronauts
