Helium leak delays Boeing’s historic Starliner mission at least another week
Helium leak delays Boeing’s historic Starliner mission at least another week
A helium leak has delayed the launch of the Starliner’s crewed flight test mission with two NASA astronauts. Here’s the next opportunity to watch history in action.
Say what you will about Boeing, but they sure know how to stop a leak.
Oh. Oh, man. That's harsh. That ranks up there with the Concorde jokes that came out of the 2000 crash.
It's a keeper.
In other news engineer found dead due to asphyxia.
Yeah, an engineer, not a whistleblower, leak fixed.
What? They were able to find a problem before it took flight? That's umpossible!
I hope the person who discovered the leak conveyed this dire information with a hilariously high-pitched voice
Boeing and leaks don't mix apparently
The crew will be remembered.
The helium leaked because the door plug on the helium tank fell off.
They also found out the liquid oxygen tank was filled with chocolate milk. Oh Boeing! 🤦
Space is hard y'all
If I were one of these people slated to take the flight I would nope the fuck out. This is what they found, how many more issues are they going to "find"(because they kept quiet about it like they always do) once this thing takes off?
Yeah there's a chance this becomes another challenger
Challenger happened because of negligence if I recall correctly and boeing issues are also happening because of negligence
I can’t believe they’re going through with it. The last (only orbital) test flight had serious problems.
