  • We have a lot to cover today, from SpaceX making huge strides with Starship development and the completion of Boca Chica Tower 2, while Blue Origin face new New Glenn Setbacks, and Rocket Factory Augsberg suffered a catastrophic failure of their RFA-1 first stage during hotfre testing. Additionally, Boeing was dealt a devastating blow as NASA announced it was not confident that Starliner is safe for crew return, and as such will need SpaceX’s Crew Dragon to rescue Butch and Suni.

The rocket is the only thing that worked as expected. The pnly thing keeping it flying is their rich and powerful lobbyists.

      @man-from-2058 17 днів тому

      There are cameras viewing the important parts of the ship that are being tested. The cameras provide all the information needed. And if the ship does manage to survive reentry & land successfully, then all the important mechanical parts worked almost perfectly, so recovering the ship would most likely not reveal that much other than what was already seen on the cameras.

    If Starliner performs s intended during return to earth, Boeing might have a chance of surviving this. If Starliner is destroyed....no way. And Bill Nelson will be hailed as a HERO, as he made this decision based on the right stuff. He already did good in my book by openly admitting two shuttles were lost due to bad management.
    If Trump wins, I hope he keeps Nelson as Admin for a while. If not I hope he brings Jim Bridenstine back.

Finally. I bet you in the 2030s will have Ariel and landing craft that can go from ground to space and back at this point. By 2040 I mean things will hit the fan real quick. We advance so quickly. It's crazy but we can get done in such a little time. 300 years ago we did not have photographs. Now we have the internet and videos and we can see everything with your own discretion

    They should cancel starliner. It's a joke. I am sad about blue origin. I do want them to succeed. I want boeing to vanish off the scene. I want SLS to be canceled too. It's too expensive.

      They wont. They need Starliner in case a Dragon suffers a disaster, that's a real possibility in space launches. They chose SL as their other option, now it's too late to change course.

      @@brianw612 nah it's fine. And honestly I think blue origin will be in orbit long before boeing fixes this crap.
