Great point FreedomPoster. I have my doubts about Hydrogen cars as well. It seems to be a fantastic concept, and can work in a controlled environment, but what happens when you have hundreds, thousands, and perhaps millions on the road? There are always unforeseen issues. For instance, EV’s sound great until you do the math on mass consumption. Aside from the usual difficulties, thieves are stealing the charging cords for the copper. Can you imagine the feeling of driving 200 miles and needing a charge, and you pull up to a station and there are no charging cables available? So, they will have to be designed to carry your own charging cable, which will be expensive, etc.

The difference between SpaceX and Boeing is that Elon doesn’t hire based on diversity quotas. He hires only geniuses, according to him.

"..Made by Cracker Box!!"

Careful..
Are you suggesting that "white folk" are qualified for this work? 😛/s

A David Bowie song is playing in my head.......................

"Dancing in the Street". Exactly! This is the song as produced by Boeing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BHkhIjG0DKc

I believe that NASA and Boeing are willing to sacrifice those two brave astronauts rather than turn to SpaceX for assistance.

Then, either SpaceX or the Russians would have to send up a rescue craft.

Well ... since the Russians are in worse shape than Boeing, that means SpaceX.

A Russian cargo resupply wessel docked just 12 days ago

Russia has agreed to support the ISS until 2028

With everyone taking those leaks, the capsule must stink pretty badly...

I was thinking more of “Space Oddity”................

“Helium is used in the spacecraft’s thruster systems to allow the thrusters to fire without being combustible or toxic.”

And there you have it. The greeniacs forced them to stop using proven hydrazine thrusters.

Well, we wouldn’t want to cause Spatial Warming, now would we?..............
