“They must be terrified witless by this point”
Astronauts “terrified witless”? Why? They’re not alone up there, repeated supply missions arrive, and they know they’ll be accommodated on a return mission within the next few months.
“They must be terrified witless by this point.”
The witless astronauts from Boeing did this to themselves. They actually flew a rocket with helium leaks as if they didn’t matter. They are lucky to be alive, so let them do their time marooned in space thinking about what idiots they are for doing what they did....to themselves, and possibly endangering the other lives on the space station while they tried to BS their way into docking without full control of their vehicle. They were lucky - they could have brought the whole shooting match down.
Go ahead Elon, save them. But shame them on the way down, and whatever you do - don’t let them touch a damn thing - just haul the deadweight back to earth and by saving a couple of idiots, show America how it’s done right.
