I doubt she has forgotten how to walk. This reads like a bad movie. Elon Musk goes to get abandoned astronaut with the president cheering on? This is actually quite funny and sad at the same time, can't we agree on that? :)

I'm sure she hasn't forgotten to walk, but she won't be able to when she comes back. In space that long, she won't be able to walk on her own when she lands.

But she hasn't broken any records for longest time in space yet. Russians had people in space for longer. And yeah, they were fucked up when they landed.

President Donald Trump said 'the two brave astronauts' were 'virtually abandoned by the Biden administration' and asked Elon Musk and SpaceX to 'go get' them.

'Elon will soon be on his way. Hopefully, all will be safe,' the president said. 'Good luck Elon!!!'

The 53-year-old billionaire vowed in a post to retrieve Wilmore and Sunita Williams 'as soon as possible.'

Great example of a moron using something that isn't political to pound their pulpit. Like anyone but Boeing needs to be blamed

Boeing does indeed suck. And they don't even seem upset about it. Musk will go save the day (hopefully).
