What the astronauts stranded on the space station must be feeling, from a former NASA astronaut

Former astronaut Clayton Anderson has a unique perspective on the situation faced by the two astronauts who are stranded on the International Space Station and are not expected to come home for months.
Clayton Anderson spent five months on the space station in 2007, taking over for Suni Williams, one of the astronauts who is currently stranded 250 miles above Earth. Three years later, he made a second trip to space, making a supply run to the ISS.
In all, Anderson tallied more than 167 days of spaceflight experience and conducted six spacewalks, according to NASA.
Sitting down with ARC Florida, Anderson talked about what it must have been like for Williams and Butch Wilmore to learn that they were not coming home on schedule, and what they may be feeling knowing they still have months to go before going home.
To get them home, NASA needed to bump two other people, NASA's Nick Hague and Russia's Aleksandr Gorbunov, from their scheduled flight in February. Anderson talked about how their possible reaction to knowing that the trip they worked so hard for has been nixed.
