The anticipated SpaceX mission to return astronauts from the ISS faced a setback when it was postponed because of a hydraulic problem at Cape Canaveral. Scheduled to launch four crew members and ensure the return of NASA's Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, the delay hinders their trip back to Earth after their Boeing spacecraft was grounded for safety reasons. A new launch opportunity may open up on Thursday.

SpaceX Launch Delayed: Astronauts Remain Stranded
A planned SpaceX mission to rescue astronauts has been postponed due to technical issues.
The launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida, was set to transport four crew members to the International Space Station (ISS) and facilitate the return of two NASA astronauts. However, hydraulic ground issues forced a delay. The mission is crucial for bringing Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore back to Earth after their initial return plans were disrupted by a safety assessment of their Boeing spacecraft. A new launch window is now anticipated for Thursday.
