NASA And Boeing Will Be Holding Off Bringing Astronauts Home

https://globalnews.ca/news/10578514/boeing-starliner-delay-iss-issues-reentry/

NASA and Boeing will be holding off bringing astronauts
Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams back from the International
Space Station (ISS), a NASA representative said on Tuesday.
And as Kyle Benning reports, this is the third time Boeing's
Cгapliner has seen its return trip delayed.

It marks another blow for this vessel, which has been hampered
by technical issues arising from the mind numbing incompetence
in the design and build of this now infamous one-way ticket machine.
Another Boeing Lawn-Dart.

IMHO
It is criminal to ask anyone to board this newest of Boeing Dеathtrap’s.
Only people with a psychotic disregard for life would ask such a thing.

Please take the 30% chance of survival so that we have a chance of
not looking like inept fools.
None of their lives are on the line,
such bravery with other’s lives, how repugnantly contemptible.
(That's Boeing and NASA in a nut shell)

Boeing is facing harsh criticism over its Starliner spacecraft,
Affectionately known as the Cгapliner

It was a picture-perfect launch of a test mission that was a
long time coming, so they launched with on-going systems failures
and just crossed their fingers that those aboard would survive
our companies massive imputed and criminality.

(apparently engineering is way over rated)

You Can’t Make This Stuff Up!!!

NASA Praises Boeing's Stranded Starliner for Managing Not to Explode While Docked
to Space Station
How long are they going to be stuck up there, exactly?

Bright Side

As two astronauts remain stuck aboard the International Space Station thanks to a barrage of issues with Boeing's Starliner capsule, NASA is praising the aerospace company for getting them there in one piece.

As Space.com reports, NASA said that despite the several issues that arose during its first days in space, the Starliner is now performing well enough that it and former naval pilots Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, the astronauts who hitched a ride to the ISS on the capsule, will be able to stay there for as long as it takes the agency and Boeing to figure out how to fix those problems.

Despite repeated delays, warnings that the Boeing capsule craft would likely have issues, and the discovery of helium leaks prior to liftoff, NASA nevertheless went ahead with the first crewed Starliner launch in early June. To the shock of no one, it immediately ran into trouble, first developing more leaks on its journey to the ISS and then having trouble docking once it got there.

Though the mission was only planned to last for 10 days, that stretch keeps growing — and has now been extended indefinitely.

NASA Astronauts Again Postpone Return To Earth After Boeing Spacecraft Issues

There's now no return date set for Boeing's Starliner transportation vessel,
after it experienced issues with its thrusters and helium systems.

Boeing’s Cгapliner transportation vessel, which docked at the
International Space Station on June 6, has repeatedly postponed its return
to Earth, in order to allow technicians to fix and analyze thrusters and helium systems that have unexpectedly shut down or leaked during use,
a spokesperson for Boeing confirmed to Huffing Post Wednesday.

Helium was leaking just after launch as they had reported it.

SpaceX’s Crew Dragon spacecraft (Not a Cгapliner) is already certified by NASA
and was the first private spacecraft to take humans to the space station.
It has completed 42 visits to the space station since 2020.

Those Clowns
Had no business launching with that POS with people on-board in the first place
346 + 2 whistleblowers + how many more?

Fingers crossed that the Star-Leaker brings our astronauts home safe and sound.
