Boeing Starliner astronauts still stuck on ISS as engineers scramble to fix issues

Two NASA astronauts are preparing to spend more unexpected time in space.

Engineers are scrambling to fix issues with the Boeing Starliner capsule, plagued with technical difficulties. The astronauts are stranded, but safe, on the International Space Station.

As Global's Jackson Proskow explains, their brief trip into orbit has stretched into nearly a month-long stay.

Boeing desperately needs a CEO who puts quality first - not profits.

[michaelfromaustin]

If it's a Boeing, I ain't going.

[geraldcroft]

Give Boeings CEO another raise, like double his salary again. What a joke

[_MaxHeadroom_]

There's absolutely no reason to use Starliner over the SpaceX Dragon capsule

[liamwilson]

At this point Boeing has become a complete meme

[Nazlikimin]

They knew about the leakage even before the rocket was launched. They then delayed the launch. But they did nothing about it while it was still there on the ground and decided to launch it anyway. Now, it is stuck on the ISS and the issue is getting much more serious. If they could not fix it when it was in front of their eyes, how the hell can they fix it while it is already in space?

Maybe they should have believed the whistle-blower instead of ending their breathing time.

[SlvrWlf]

Coincidence? Boeing sure has been bold about ending the whistleblowers 😅

What do you mean a year behind schedule? It’s well over 5 years behind schedule at this point. Get your facts straight Global

"I applied to nasa but their was no space."

[BuickOutdoors]

With all of the problems Boeing has had lately, I'm blown away that the FAA allowed them to fly this mission.

[FullFrontalExposure]

Word of advice to the astronauts, don’t get back in that vessel 😂

[facialcream]

So why isn’t the CEO of Boeing not in jail or looking at jail time for putting people’s safety at risk.

[mynameisChizzle]

They were brave for taking the chance with Boeing.

[blaskoxx]

1.5 billion over budget, and it's broken. Government spending is insane. Boeing use to be an engineering firm.

[fishygaming]

Having this low quality stuff in space is the just not an option.

[Raytracer]

The situation is worse than what the media channels tell you

[artistzamira]

As soon as I read Boeing . I wasn't surprised.

[gamaigia]

Scary situation. Fingers crossed they resolve it soon.

[brycedyck]

Would you trust a Boeing product right now?
