DEI needs to DIE before more people DIE because of DEI!!!!!
I thought astronauts had an age cut-off? 62 years old.
So NASA deliberately put the ISS in danger, rather than doing the correct thing.
Got it.
This is way worse than what I had heard.
People need to be fired and maybe even prosecuted.
Any bets on what the QUALITY of the Boeing F-47 will be?
It’s them. Those DEAD EYES.
Thank God America had Elon Musk and Space X to bail our butts out.
A couple of thoughts, I imagine the butt cheeks on the astronauts and a lot of NASA engineers were clinched so tightly you couldn’t slide a quarter between them.
Seriously, how much pressure do you think the Biden Administration put on NASA to go ahead with the launch despite all the warnings because they didn’t want any positive press being directed to Elon Musk and SpaceX.
We know from the Astronauts themselves and Elon Musk, the Biden Administration denied offers of help from SpaceX to rescue the Astronauts because the rescue would have happened before the election and potentially help Trump.
That realization had to be profoundly devastating.
A feeling very few human beings have ever experienced.
Lesser men would have frozen up , paralyzed and overwhelmed by the most likely outcome laid out before them.
There shows another advantage of sending these Astronauts up in teams. Somebody like him, a highly trained professional , does not want to be the weak link, the one who falls apart and lets his team down.
All they did was take the Apollo drawings and update them.
They could not even get that right...
Is Mrs. Williams a muslim, by any chance? Asking for a friend.
"The remote override restored two of the failed thrusters, giving the ship just enough control to safely dock at the space station....And from that moment on, Boeing and the Enemedia began gaslighting the American taxpayers about what had happened, was happening, and was going to happen to the two astronauts.
"Wilmore, on the other hand, knew that their problems had only just begun and would likely need another way home."
3 hour tour!
Space shuttle Columbia.
Technical people said “no”.
Managers said “yes”.
We got lucky this time - didn’t lose anybody.
(prior to takeoff)
They KNEW before launch
It was reported here - I was saying DON’T LAUNCH - it was so obviously dangerous
Wow, that was a lot closer call than we ever knew. We almost lost that crew.
NASA/Boeing vs. SpaceX! But ALL must HATE Elon Musk!
NASA needs to be severely DOGEd ...
Whew!

Congratulations to @SpaceX for bringing back
@NASA Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams following their unexpected, extended mission aboard the @Space_Station! These astronauts’ steady poise and professionalism over the last several months are to be commended. We’re glad to have you home! #AProudSalute
Gus Grissom's capsule blew a hatch and sank. Glenn's heat shield may have been loose. Gordon Cooper had to manually control his Mercury capsule after a guidance failure on re-entry (his landing was more accurate that the auto system could offer).
Neil Armstrong's Gemini capsule maneuvered uncontrollably when they tried docking to an Agena stage (stuck thruster) until he fixed it. Ed White's space suit swelled so much on our first space walk attempt, they didn't think he could re-enter his Gemini capsule.
Apollo 13 had a major blowout. We lost two space shuttle crews in flight.
Yet, we still go back. That is the spirit that makes America great. We didn't quit, we overcame.
Yikes!
