A couple of videos explaining orbits etc.
I have noticed a lot of debris falling away from Chinese launches. I wonder if its ice on the rocket skin formed by the cold propellants.Now something else, during this launch we see a lot of launch debris blasting away!
Those are definitely not pieces of ice, which look like white flakes/this plates and fall normally vertically downward from the external rocketskin.I have noticed a lot of debris falling away from Chinese launches. I wonder if its ice on the rocket skin formed by the cold propellants.
One has to like he is putting a lot of his money on the line as well.
Elon official X account shown video of Starship reentering the atmosphere. This is the farthest flight of Elon's space vehicles so far. You may like or dislike Elon, but so far his space company achievements outstrip others.
No, he is more than happy to spend other people's money on his ego massaging projects.If you throw enough money and resources at a problem you will find a solution that works.One has to like he is putting a lot of his money on the line as well.![]()
My goodness, i expected that the two astronauts were already back on Earth, but it is now already more than 54 days!Thrusters have a problem because of seals. Why did Boeing reinvent seals, bean counter idea to reduce cost? Starliner has now been stranded for 50 days! Boeing investment paper should be on A-W rollers.
The USAF and USN should ban them from 6th Gen fighters!
Elon must be laughing his a$$ off at Boeing. Also a reminder to LM that their Orion CM needs to be right prior to leaving for the moon.My goodness, i expected that the two astronauts were already back on Earth, but it is now already more than 54 days!
Hopefully NASA doesn't easily accept this and demand more testflights before letting the Starliner become fully operational.
What a hopeless company. After an (uncrewed) return of the Starliner, Boeing expects that NASA is willing to accept their product, only because of "sufficient data gathering".The latest update on the Starliner fiasco. The best line in the article is Boeing’s stance the craft is save to return. Given Boeing’s performance of late, waiting for SpaceX seems to be a better option.
