Boeing's Starliner returns to Earth leaving astronauts behind

Показать описание
Boeing's Starliner spacecraft landed uncrewed in a New Mexico desert, capping a three-month test mission hobbled by technical issues that forced the astronauts it had flown to the International Space Station to remain there until next year.

Nasa astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who became the first crew to fly Starliner in June, remained on the ISS as Starliner autonomously undocked, beginning a six-hour trek to Earth using manoeuvring thrusters that Nasa last month deemed too risky for a crew.

Starliner returned to Earth seemingly without a hitch, a Nasa live stream showed, nailing the critical final phase of its mission.

I hope that, going forward, every astronaut will ask some basic questions, the first of which should be "was the space craft made by Boeing?" If they're told Yes, and they accept the risk, then they should go.
As for me and most folks, if it's Boeing, we ain't going. I wouldn't even ride a bicycle made by Boeing. 😂

starliner.. sounds so futuristic doesn't it.. while in reality all that happened is a chunk of metal fell to earth with parachutes on it.

All the companies in the space programme have had problems not just Boeing. SpaceX has just had a incident with a booster falling over when it landed and not so long ago one it's payloads didn't reach the correct height for orbit

I thought they said craft could not come because of mechanical problem.
If it got back why not the astronauts unless I messed something.

As long as the damned thing didn't hit my house, I really don't care WHERE it landed.

Btw, Russia offered help with the return of the astronauts but US refused for political reasons.

Has anyone considered fabricating adapters to fit the nasa space suits to those aboard Elons' space-x rockets yet? Asking for a friend...

The first star wars movie looked more realistic.
