What happens when an astronaut in orbit says he’s not coming back?
ERIC BERGER - 1/22/2024, 12:00 PM

"If you guys don't give me a chance to repair my instrument, I'm not going back."

Taylor Wang was deeply despondent.

A day earlier, he had quite literally felt on top of the world by becoming the first Chinese-born person to fly into space. But now, orbiting Earth on board the Space Shuttle, all of his hopes and dreams, everything he had worked on for the better part of a decade as an American scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, had come crashing down around him.
