The International Space Station is starting to look like a hotel.
The astronauts were supposed to return to terra firma on April 19 after a full 10 days of drinking recycled pee in zero gravity.
The date for the space tourists is being pushed back because of bad weather off the coast of Florida.
The return of the team led by former NASA astronauts was initially pushed back to April 20, but NASA's latest update says they will be able to return in April.
NASA officials wrote in the agency's April 20 post that teams will continue to monitor weather at the splashdown sites to make sure conditions are acceptable for a safe recovery of the astronauts.
There are more than enough supplies for the 11 people currently aboard the space station to last through the initial 10 days of their stay. It's not hard to imagine wanting to get back on Earth, where the gravity is normal and where you can eat real.
