NASA and SpaceX’s Unexpected Spacecraft Swap Sends Crew-10 to Space Sooner

Following Trump push, launch of NASA's Crew-10 and return of Starliner astronauts moved up
NASA moved up the launch of Crew-10 to March 12 to return the Starliner astronauts home sooner. Crew-10 will now launch on Crew Dragon Endurance, which was originally assigned to the Axiom 4 mission. The Starliner spacecraft experienced thruster issues during its test flight in June, leading to an extended stay for its two astronauts.
