Like most normal non agency folks I can see that NASA has not been able to bring these folks home for several months beyond their original planned visit. Not been ABLE or not been WILLING to bring them home. As far as I'm concerned that is STRANDED.

I like the way they talk. And the way they think. Present history is the greatest reality show ever produced.

Hollywood will go broke.

NASA originally didn't even want SpaceX as a contractor for the ISS mission. They and Boeing have dumped triple the amount of money in Boeings still not ready craft. NASA should never have sent them up in the Starliner. How awful that NASA and Space.com cover for the hate against Musk and SpaceX / Ms Shotwell's incredible successes. Time to admit the stranding, and realize Starliner will never fly again.

Let's just get these people back! And be thankful someone has the means.

Cambridge dictionary…“unable to leave somewhere because of a problem such as not having ant transportation or money.”

We often hear news reports of people stranded in airports, stranded in hotels due to road closures, etc.
