“Didn’t Starliner already have a successful unmanned return?”
I wouldn’t bet any money on this one returning successfully if I was you.

The thrusters performed fine in the delicate exit operation from the ISS.

The cynic is me is wondering...
My NASA TV channel no longer exists on Xfinity/Comcast. I looked it up and NASA is eliminating NASA TV and starting NASA+ on digital platforms. Roku has already converted its NASA TV to NASA+, so I already have it on my Roku lineup.
It was on July 29, 2024, that NASA made this announcement.
Did NASA time this announcement to take advantage of the hype of the troubled Boeing Starliner? Were they expecting people to tune in thinking they'd watch the Boeing Starliner blow up or disintegrate during reentry, so they announced their NASA+ digital channel just in time for it?

FYI...
The NASA+ live coverage of the reentry goes live in 3 minutes.

My main TV is a 2014 Samsung 75" with 3D. I'm going to watch this in the simulated 2D->3D mode.

First time I’ve turned on the TV since Superbowl (casting from phone).

Totally nominal thus far. Service module jettisoned.

It’s down. Didn’t look like the propulsive landing worked, but it didn’t blow up, just hit hard.

It did. Perfect soft landing, everything worked as expected.
I’ve been watching the ‘Lookner Nerd’ on Agenda Free TV. (It tickles me how excited he gets over things like this...)

I'm just glad that Biden didn't shoot it down to show China how tough he was this time. < /sarc>
