NASA is like the gang that can’t shoot straight..
You’d pay $500 for that in Times Square.
I increasingly think the space station and NASA is just one big accident waiting to happen.
Perhaps DEI engineering at its finest......LOL
DEI
Sounds like she didn’t have her umbilical connected correctly.
I’m guessing that woke / managerial incompetence / government involvement plays a key role.
Tick tocking to a Morton Thiokol moment.
I suspect everything bad that is happening on this flight is because nasa has descended into being a joke.
Exactly what I was thinking....I would suppose that NASA means “Not As Special Anymore”.
DEI didn't drill this sufficiently in training, I suspect.
We perhaps should have given earlier and greater heed to the warning signs about where things had been heading.
What a great illustration of systemic dysfunctional quality control manifest at today’s “modern” Boeing-NASA. Its now obvious to even the dumbest employee that the new-improved company wide policies are new only. Some 350 people are dead as a result if you trace this back to the 737Max disasters. I worked for Boeing in 2005-2010 when the first 787 came off the line at Everett. Looking back...I can remember the same kind of development blunders all the way to Airbus’s A380. The 787 had the exact same kind of problems with roots traceable to foreign engineers using a totally different computer aided design software...resulting in utter communication breakdowns. The 787 airframe was built all over the world and pieces shipped to Everett to assemble like a puzzle...except the pieces didnt fit together. Was great overtime for the mechanics though.
Be glad it wasn’t black water, as any RVer can tell you.
Emptying the black water tank is ten times worse than scooping the cat litter box.
“stem the unexpected leak by reconnecting the umbilical unit”
Left loosey, righty tighty.
Truly. One of my sons is an aerospace welding engineer, and it was his DREAM to work for NASA, and his dream was fulfilled shortly after grad school a few years ago. He works closely with Boeing and is absolutely miserable and shocked at the dysfunction. He’s now interviewing at other places, needless to say.
Urinal backed up.
THAT IS THE OVER/UNDER ON MUSK RESCUING THEM???
It’s getting close to 50/50. If Boeing/NASA can’t come up with a safe solution, they will have to ask either Musk or the Russians for help.................................
