Was everyone talking funny?
Technology is so OVER SENSORED today that more often than not it’s the sensors that malfunction and not the system they are monitoring.
It’s everywhere, new cars, new fangled fridges, appliances, hvac units.
Betcha they never launch.
“Betcha they never launch.”
Meanwhile at SpaceX............
I discovered recently that helium is not combustible......I mistook it for hydrogen.
It seems you CAN learn something new ON FR...
occasionally anyway. Lol!
Paint “FAILURE” on the Boeing’s Starliners and send them to Museums if they’ll take them
Everyone sounded like Elmer Fudd.
Give me a pre “emissions controls” early 1960s car.
Waiting again? I thought it was supposed to blow up— er go up a week ago. I guess I should have known it was delayed since it wasn’t mentioned in the news.
When asked about Boeing’s problems, program manager Sha’queesha Jefferson and chief engineer Mohammed al Mohammed assured reporters that the Starliner is the best space vehicle DEI could pdoduce.
I am very disappointed in NASA. I cannot take them seriously anymore, and haven’t for some time.
They try to use electronics to compensate for mechanical failure.
Front wheels out of alignment? Electronic power steering can compensate for that at the steering wheel so you don’t feel a thing. It’s crazy. Like Schrodingers front wheel alignment.
Nelson is just another biden brain.
I knew it wasn’t helium in the Hindenburg...just couldn’t remember which gas was used. Thanks for the reminder! I hate getting old...
HElium is very expensive / in short supply, and lacks mass, which you need for a thruster. I’m surprised they don’t use something like Argon or even Krypton, that has more mass and is similarly non-combustible.
> I discovered recently that helium is not combustible..
But you can compress it and heat it up a couple hundred million degrees and fuse the atoms together ;-)
Boeing needs wholesale replacement of top people all across the organization. It’s becoming as badly run as the government.
They can't do their original mission anymore but they are all over "man made climate change".
