Episode description

Elon Musk’s SpaceX is delaying its Polaris Dawn launch, scheduled for today, until tomorrow morning due to a helium leak. In related news, NASA announced Saturday that it will use SpaceX’s Dragon capsule to bring two astronauts home from the International Space Station. However, the next Dragon return flight is not scheduled until February. As a result, their stay, originally intended to last eight days, will extend to about eight months.
