How Tom Cruise inspired Sunita Williams | RizingHer We are often unaware of our true potential until our backs are completely against the wall. It is only when tested with the harshest we realize our true self. The things we are capable of. The mountains we can climb. The ships we can sail. When a young Sunita was running around the streets of 70’s Massachusetts, she had no idea what destiny had in store for her. She could not have known she was going to do something perceived as inconceivable at the time. Unimaginable still, for most of us. On March 18th, Sunita Williams returned to Earth after spending more than nine months in space. That’s a long time, a very long time. Imagine being out there in the vastness of space, surrounded by a never-ending void of stars, far from your family, far from your friends, and more importantly, far from the pull of gravity. Her return also marks the conclusion of a mission that began with a troubled test flight in June 2023. Williams and her crewmate, Wilmore, made their way back aboard a SpaceX capsule, which gently parachuted into the Gulf of Mexico early Wednesday morning, bringing an end to their extended stay aboard the International Space Station.
