Hannity pressed Musk about the astronauts ‘policy’ The returns of the return, and Musk set a record right in connection with Baden’s previous administration.
“We certainly offered to return the astronauts before. There is no question about that,” Musk said.
“The astronauts had to be there for only eight days, and they were almost ten months old. So, it obviously doesn’t make sense. Spacex could return the astronauts a few months later, and we made this proposal to Baden’s administration. It was rejected for political reasons, and that’s just a fact.”
