“But they’ve said repeatedly that the astronauts are not stranded and that in the case of an emergency, they could fly home in Starliner. SpaceX’s Dragon capsule, which has been flying astronauts to the space station for NASA since 2020, could be used as a backup if necessary, NASA officials said.”

Looks like they’re on an extended stay and will come back soon

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.

Is Boeing concerned to big to fail like the banks? Seriously throw the whole company away. That brand is toast and is the butt of all jokes.


Are u saying that Boeing is the space/aviation version of that Titan submarine and that planes are being flown with rebore x box controllers?

Wow

NASA turning into the military buying shyt from whoever will do it the cheapest :pachaha:


Gotta watch those contractors "military-grade" either means it's tough or it's a piece of shyt. No in-between.

Damn, hope those two make it back alive and in one piece. Do not be surprised if we see this with Elon and Space X sooner or later.
