NASA Plans to Fly Astronauts on Boeing's Starliner
Original: NASA Will Try To Fly People On Starliner
NASA says it will attempt to put astronauts on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, according to a report from NASA Watch. The decision comes after repeated technical problems with the capsule, including thruster failures and helium leaks that previously delayed crewed flights. The move signals continued confidence in Boeing's vehicle despite ongoing scrutiny and criticism from space industry observers about the programme's reliability and cost.
Why now: NASA's decision to continue flying crews on the troubled Starliner is drawing attention amid ongoing safety and reliability concerns.
