Sunita Williams has eventually dismissed rumors about her health while attributing her altered appearance to fluid shifts caused by microgravity rather than significant weight loss, asserted New York Post. She also stated that she maintains her weight through a rigorous exercise regimen and proper nutrition.
Both the astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore are expected to return to Earth aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule in the month of February 2025, noted New York Post.
