What do you think? Was this to save time, or maybe there was just some internal miscommunication, and we will see yet another engine swap and static fire on Ship 30?

[dougkomonkeyboy]

for some reason i read the title as starliner still sucks hahaha

[richardvallonjr.]

As a kid in the early 60s I remembered watching old sci fi movies from the 50s where the rockets landed on their tails. All the kids would laugh and say- that is impossible... We were so wrong.

[cryshot]

I read "Starliner still sucks ass" at first glance, which probably holds true haha

[towoperations]

Starliners Butch and Sonny's overtime check is going to be awesome!

[flippert]

If SpaceX really can make the catch happen...
This would be by far the craziest space technology manouvre since the moon landing.

[martinkeatings]

Saying something is impossible is probably not the best line to take, considering 10 years ago they said the same thing about landing a rocket.

As I understand the land dispute, SpaceX bought several parcels from the company, but the contract stipulated the company could not purchase any additional land within five miles of star base. After that contract, they purchased another parcel and refused to sell. SpaceX sued for breach of contract and argued they should only have to pay what the company in breach of contract paid the original owner.

"people saying its impossible should not interrupt people doing it "

[Hykje]

Hopefully Butch and Suni don't end up as the guy who lived at an airport for 18 years. -"Who they are -that's Butch and Suni -they got stuck here back in 2024 a couple of years before they built the space elevator."

[ThePowerOfTesla]

Starliner, It's not a death trap! - Now there's a tagline to inspire confidence.

[simonmedina]

Can't wait for the launch so excited

[der_bruehl]

"We have looked into our channel metr-" - Skip

[marcdb]

Funny how the FAA has no problem letting a crewed capsule with known defects launch with crew to the ISS, possibly endangering it as well, but an unmanned ship landing/crashing in a sparsely populated area might be a problem.

[tophermartinthecomic]

Butch and Suni at the ISS is like a redux of Gilligan's Island, the eight day tour turning into 8 months, and nearly as comical.

[ianPedlar]

For SpaceX the impossible takes a while, the CrAzY takes a little longer.

[pyalot]

At this rate, stuckliner will still be stuck by the time starship touches down on the moon.

[choiceblade]

You kind of made this point, but it’s worth reiterating. The phrase “abundance of caution“ takes on different meaning for viewers of this channel that witnessed Challenger explode live in person. Love the content keep it coming.

[Neeboopsh]

during the starliner launch, i can only imagine those 2 listening to the news while waiting inside starliner and finding out about yet another boeing plane falling apart and being like "uhh... can we call elon instead?"

[fridaycaliforniaa]

This Raptor 3 on the photo is so clean I thought it was an incomplete 3D render XD 😂
It's almost like this thing is naked to the bones 😯
