Out of Orbit: How Astronergy Solar Panels Are More Reliable Than a Ticket Home
Posted on 16th August 2024
Googling Boeing incidents, I found myself scrolling through a rather eye-watering list of mishaps involving their aircraft. Just when one thought it couldn't get any worse, Boeing took its mishaps to new heights - literally. Recently, Boeing’s Starliner managed to leave two astronauts stranded at the International Space Station (ISS). Yes, you read that right: STRANDED. IN. SPACE.
When an 8-Day Mission Becomes an Extended Stay
Sunita "Suni" Williams and Commander Barry "Butch" Wilmore were supposed to spend a quick 8 days in space, testing Boeing's shiny new Starliner. But thanks to helium leaks and thruster failures that nearly sent them drifting into the void, their short mission has turned into an unexpectedly extended stay. Imagine booking a week in the Cotswolds and winding up with a one-way ticket to the Sahara.
NASA is doing its best to keep Suni and Butch comfortable, while Boeing is busy insisting everything’s fine. "They're not stuck," Boeing says, with the kind of optimism usually reserved for people who’ve lost their keys and insist, “They’ll turn up.”
