Scott Manley | Will Astronaut's 8 Day Mission Turn into an 8 Month Mission? Starliner Answers Slowly Emerge. @scottmanley | Uploaded 1 month ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Yesterday we had another update on Starliner's extended stay at the ISS, and depending on how things play out we could see the two crew members coming home before the end of the month.... or spending another 6 months in space. Engineers at Boeing and Aerojet may have some idea about the root cause of the thruster failures, but are far from fully understanding the situation and delivering the kind of certainty that NASA decision makers want to see.
