Hurricane Milton then interfered, followed by a further two weeks of high wind and rough seas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">SpaceX launched the four astronauts \u2013 Nasa\u2019s Matthew Dominick, Michael Barratt and Jeanette Epps, and Russia\u2019s Alexander Grebenkin \u2013 in March. Barratt, the only space veteran going into the mission, acknowledged the support teams back home that had \u201cto replan, retool and kind of redo everything right along with us \u2026 and helped us to roll with all those punches\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-1eu361v\">Their replacements are the two Starliner test pilots Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, whose own mission went from eight days to eight months, and two astronauts launched by SpaceX four weeks ago.
