Breaking: 2 astronauts currently stuck INDEFINITELY in SPACE on a Boeing spaceship (Update 4: they back home) )

I've read that they had zero problems with the space program until they started using private companies instead of the gov just doing everything.

Need to do some research but that sounds right.

Here's what companies do. They try to do shyt as cheap as possible. That's fine for a bicycle or even a car. The car starts having problems you just stop the car.

A space ship has ONE LITTLE problem and that whole shyt vaporizes. Instantly.

That's why companies prolly shouldn't be in charge of space ships. Even if whoever making the ship is doing extra.. great. Fine. Add an extra layer or 10.

no and that's actually a reductive take on it all and private space flight becoming cheaper is like.... a massive win for everyone across the world lol

shyt, most governments are happily drawing up new ways to incentivize that shyt because *competition is critical* when it comes to emerging tech

Googles Gemini says you're wrong. I am wrong about there being zero problems before contractors.. but the percentage is much lower.

Just for fun, go ask Gemini. I ain't a huge fan of AI, but that shyt is EFFICIENT

Couldn’t even bless the man with a nice pawg to look at for eternity.

lol ok

lets ignore what private industry competition has meant for sea, rail, and air for decades and dismiss what commercial sat and reusable launch assets has already accomplished globally

maybe you're asking the wrong question or misinterpreting the answer.

Misleading titles. They’re on the space station and there’s a lifeboat, but the test ship Boeing sent up is having issues.

@SpacelySprockets Now you know you done fukked up right

 

[Starman]

I know worse comes to worst they have suicide pills...

 

[Pirius Black]

Somehow, I'm sure DEI is to blame for this.

 

[Diondon]

Boeing not beating them allegations

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Guess this answered my question to why man hasn't gone to the moon since the 70s....

 

[Geek Nasty]

She’s an astronaut with a masters not an IG model. Beating off all day has your minds addled.

 

[wire28]

Boeing has given no fukk for years. They gotta be one of the shyttiest big name corps out there

 

[Tribal Outkast]

Tell Frye and Bender and them I said what’s up

They aren't stranded, they're at the ISS. They could simply board another ship and go home but are choosing to stay till their shuttle is fixed.
