(ANSA) - Moscow, May 8 - Italy's Samantha Cristoforetti and the other members of the crew of the International Space Station (ISS) scheduled to return on May 14 look set to have to stay aboard almost a month longer. The Interfax agency on Friday quoted Russia space sector sources as saying the astronauts will not return on June 11 because of the Progress M-27M resupply ship, which disintegrated over the Pacific overnight after reeling out of control following its launch last week.
