Original review summary

The review found that the tour video dates to 2012, not 2024. It reports that Williams and Barry Wilmore’s mission, which began in June 2024 and was initially planned for 10 days, was extended, with their return then expected in 2025 after 240 days in space.[S1]

Additional context

The review identifies NASA’s video as having been published on 20 November 2012; its description says Williams recorded the tour shortly before departing the station. [S1]

The review says Williams and Wilmore had been aboard the ISS since 6 June 2024, and that technical problems with the Boeing Starliner test flight extended their mission. [S1]
