Boeing Starliner Orbital Flight Test Landing

Watch the full broadcast of the CST-100 #Starliner landing at 5:58 a.m. MT on Dec. 22 at White Sands Missile Range in the New Mexico desert. Our landing and recovery team as well as U.S. Army and NASA teams were on the ground. Flight controllers and engineers were at Boeing Mission Control at Kennedy Space Center and Johnson Space Center Mission Control.

The real highlight of this mission was the ability of ground control to save the space craft from bungled software fault testing that nearly setback program a year or two. This fiasco was compounded by archaic live coverage compared to SpaceX, that actually rates as entertainment and education.

good job! trouble is normal by testing. perfect touchdown. congratulations to all boeing workers out there

[kendavis]

Wow so much more advanced than watching space travel as a kid in the 1960s. Boeing a great American company.

Mirek , we learn from our mistakes! Backwards isn’t in our GAME PLAN, if that were true , We would STILL BE LIVING IN CAVES

YouTube seems to save long boring videos like these for ppl who fall asleep... 🥱

Lycka till med eder År 2020. Leif Göransson. Med Rymden Och Sateliter Till Månen. Tack!

so when will we get the StarLiner internal camera's veiw of the take off and decent... Waiting... ^^ :)

It is good NASA also signed acceptance of the system, I hope recovery of error can take place🎄🎄🎄🎅🎅🎅

@Boeing and @Nasa watch some SpaceX and Blueorigin coverage of their missions, they do it right. This mission coverage was lacking and somewhat disappointing.

I hope that it's not this that got Dennis the Menace fired. Unlike the 737 MAX, the Starliner made it back in one piece

The live chat made me weep for humanity. Its a shame humanity has barely evolved as a whole. Im glad for the small pockets at least. Nice job team.

[adryncharn]

Atleast it went to space and came back without turning into a fireball.

[chack]

Very sorry! So many New Year's gifts did not get on the ISS for astronauts .. ((

[peterterwilliger]

At least space X knows what they are doing.

[jonglewongle]

Yes. An entirely successful planetary space flight

[clofcfcf]

is the crew dragon or the Starliner the first US rated human capsule ?

[MrGTO-zevb]

Glad they got back the Starliner capsule...!! Time for some tasty New Mexican tacos.! So was it NASA's miss calculation why this mission missed it's orbit??

[wgmusicbreak]

why they love to show off the flag as happened in apollo

1:54:09 Clearly visible vertical handle to the left of the hatch. On a hypersonic aircraft, there may not be a handle on the outside. There is no evidence of high temperature on the surface. This machine was not in space. It was thrown from the plane, as during the test of the parachute system.

Hopefully by now the repetitive human work in regards to cranking down the trailer jacks has been replaced with AI technology. The return to earth was uneventful, and appears this particular node survived the re-entry due to the exhausting engineering efforts to achieve this event. What is disconcerting though is humans running around sorting out the trailer leveling. This is not an aircraft taxiing into a spot with baggage handlers offloading/onloading suit cases or catering services replacing food & related equipment.

There is potential for improvement to reduce injuries, as well as reducing time with the correct positioning of equipment utilizing AI technology. A pickup truck backing in the trailer??? This spacecraft deserves much more & Boeing can do so much better.
