Finally a definite decision. It will be SpaceX does the job.

Not until after the inauguration of the next president. Relevant?

[silent majority rising]

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid?

[adorno]

Space-X doing the job Boeing is incapable of doing.

Must should buy Boeing and teach them how to do things.

[MtnClimber]

Going woke will leave you stranded.

[Wuli]

!!!!FEBRUARY!!!!

NASA should be totally ashamed!!!

[wildcard_redneck]

I was thinking the same thing. However Boeing is a zombie mismanaged by leftist accountants and HR thugettes and the rot is too deep for Musk to fix easily. However Musk should start an aircraft company from scratch and her could put Boeing out of business in less than 10 years.

NASA should be totally ashamed!!!

We should all be ashamed of what we did with the country we inherited. I guess as long as there's a game on the TV, we can pretend we're the ones making those great plays, and we'll be right as rain.

Boeing is the JetBlue of space transport.

Yep, most Americans were born on third base, and think they hit a triple.

Love that auto correct
Must = musk

[C210N]

Are they even up there?

As it passes overhead, it’s not like we can see them wave from the ISS window.

[adorno]

Boeing is a zombie mismanaged by leftist accountants and HR thugettes and the rot is too deep for Musk to fix easily.

He took over Twitter and got rid of the rot and now, it's a platform well on the way to becoming a main player in the free-speech arena. Boeing may seem hopeless, but being hopeless means that, it's bound to go under. Boeing should be a target for a better management team, and Musk knows how to do things and fix things. <
>br> Can you say: Boeing-X, or X-Boeing?

This entire mission is an embarrassment for Boeing and NASA. Not trying to minimize the difficulties of spaceflight, but the maneuvering systems since Mercury have always relied on thrusters. It’s a basic concept in spacecraft design. How Boeing could have screwed this up so spectacularly is stunning. But I’m sure a diverse slate of engineers worked on it, so it’s all good.

MUSK DOESN’T NEED THAT HEADACHE

BOEING can fail all on it’s DEI own self.

[TheDon]

“NASA said Starliner’s undocking from the ISS and unpiloted return to Earth will be carried out remotely as early as Sept. 6.”

It’s likely to return successfully.

[Dalberg-Acton]

If the plane is Boeing, I ain’t going.

“So long as they (the Proles) continued to work and breed, their other activities were without importance. Left to themselves, like cattle turned loose upon the plains of Argentina, they had reverted to a style of life that appeared to be natural to them, a sort of ancestral pattern...Heavy physical work, the care of home and children, petty quarrels with neighbors, films, football, beer and above all, gambling filled up the horizon of their minds. To keep them in control was not difficult.”
― George Orwell, 1984

I didn’t realize this, but former long time Florida US Senator Bill Nelson is the NASA Administrator, he was defeated for the US Senate by Rick Scott.

I’m sure they’re other reasons why NASA is so screwed up but Bill Nelson being charge is one of them.

Particularly now and the sense of entitlement in young women particularly black young women makes them think they get a free pass to steal home plate!
