Shitty Boeing aside, how are they eating up there? I don't know anything about space station food logistics, but if a planned week has turned into ten weeks, surely there must be a resource strain.
Edit: Google search says they can regularly send up unmanned supply ships.
Can’t wait to see this project too in Google’s graveyard.

Instructions: please ring door bell
Please leave anywhere near the airlock. Pls don't ring or knock, dogs bark.
