Despite being over 250 miles above Earth, the crew is determined to maintain their holiday spirit. Since June, Williams and Barry “Butch” Wilmore have been aboard the station, with their mission now extended into early 2024.

NASA astronaut Sunita Williams is enjoying her extended time in space and maintaining her health through a rigorous fitness routine.

Williams and her fellow astronaut, Butch Willmore, have been on the ISS since June 2024. Discussing the challenges of long-duration space missions, Williams revealed, “We work out two hours a day. Our bodies have changed a little bit, and that's why we have to work out so much. Some people call it space buff.”

Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, both NASA astronauts, have been stuck at the International Space Station for more than six months due to a Starliner spacecraft malfunction. They are set to return to Earth in February 2025.
