Elon Musk Revealed Shocking Secret about What Happened To Boeing Starliner!
The thruster failure during the Boeing Star liner crew test flight is the most obvious example of Boeing's technical weakness.
Of course, Boeing's technical weakness is not just about poor workmanship, but it also reflects a wider culture problem at the company.
To get the real story, we need to dive deep into the inner workings of Boeing, and its relationship with its contractors such as Aerojet Rocketdyne and even its buyer, Nasa.
Find out everything in today's Techmap episode.
But before we begin, let's subscribe to the channel to stay up-to-date with the latest space news.
Elon Musk Revealed Shocking Secret about What Happened To Boeing Starliner!
The return of Boeing’s Star liner Calypso to Earth without its crew was perhaps the hollowest victory in Boeing's history of space exploration.
Rather than focusing on the spacecraft’s safe landing, what has captured the public’s attention most is Calypso’s failure to fulfill its role in the Crew Flight Test mission. It carried astronauts to the ISS but was not allowed to take them home due to safety concerns, leaving the “new kid on the block,” Boeing’s rival, SpaceX, to help.
Furthermore, Boeing's longtime ally, NASA, which has covered up Boeing's mistakes time and again, has ended up embarrassing them even more. The US space agency has totally no regrets about the decision to return without astronauts on board.
The crack between Boeing and Nasa has started since NASA consent to allow both astronauts Butch and Sunni to stay on the ISS until February 2025 and return on a SpaceX Dragon.

In response, Boeing representatives were later absent in the August 24 press conference where Nasa announced that final decision.
Two Boeing officials didn't also show up at a news conference after the flight without reason.
Of course, this is just Boeing's childish tantrum because they knew full well that their credibility in the eyes of NASA and the public at large was gone.
They also realize well that one of the factors being blamed is a severing of communication between those at the top of the company and the people actually doing the work. “It’s people at the top not understanding what was going on and having no interest in understanding,” said Richard Aboulafia, an aviation industry analyst at AeroDynamic Advisory.

MacDonald Douglas ran their own company into the ground. Then they acquired Boeing, and proceeded to do the same Damn thing. Genius!

Where is the "shocking" reveal ? - or ... shall we say .. clickbait = dislike = unsubscribe?

[Siggyroka]

Boeings paying off people in Washington

[kathym]

How about Boeing's relationship to DEI? What do you expect when excellence doesn't come first.

[neilalexander]

Cost plus is inviting trouble. I wouldn't buy anything on that basis.

[AI_MicroSolder]

Old tech will always fail in the path of real enginiers.

[kevinbissett]

Good Morning. I love your reporting. McDonald Douglas was a Great Company at one time as well. I married a Douglas. She said the very same thing you are talking about. Great History Lesson. Everybody should hear this. Have a Great Day my Friend.

Not an engineer, but the NASA should not have let the Dreamliner move forward and launch a crew without resolving all of the problems BEFORE the launch. When a problem has to be resolved in outer space, the task becomes way more complicated. On the On January 28, 1986 Challenger debacle, NASA suits pressured the booster company Thiokol to okay the Challenger flight even though Thiokol engineers said ti was too cold. And of course the rest is history. Now I see why the 737 Max was such a failure and 300 people were killed in the process, the problem is systemic.

Boeing/NASA/FAA inbreeding is a major problem for America. 737, 777, Starliner, all suffering from basic failures and major cost over-runs.

[frankgonzalez]

Boeing has been killing boeing the last 20+ years

[pagansavage]

Boeing is one reason SpaceX is having trouble with the FFA. Boeing is piss that their astronauts are coming home on Dragon.

[MichaelJolySr]

I would like to know what Boeing did with all the billions of dollars they received from NASA! I don’t think they put much of that money in their space craft!

[Danielspacex]

Full tilt trainwreck. Holy Mackrel! You NASA astronauts are f-ing crazy😂

[andrewjosepholson]

“Elon Musk Revealed Shocking Secret.” You lied. You keep doing it. Click-bait will be the death of this channel.

[erik-]

Isn't a valve like an escape hatch? Should they not function unexpectedly? Is this not an issue with Boeing? What does space smell like? Too many questions out there...

[fowler]

The design outsourcing issues at Boeing could be traced back to the B787 program, not only Starliner.

[ruthlemler]

If we are smart we will all vote for Trump. At least he will demand NASA spend money on companies that produce on time and not companies that are buddies with politicians.

[TheCNYMike]

It landed safely in spite of all the predictions it wouldn't from the Elon Musk Internet College of Aerospace Engineering. How are you coping?

[marksown]

I'm pretty sure we all hope for the best 😊

[marksown]

Well, at least they are trying, not easy endeavors
