Boeing’s Starliner crewed mission was postponed shortly before launch on Monday because of a last-minute issue that cropped up with a valve on the spacecraft’s rocket. Turns out the spacecraft was made by Boeing, which is concerning because recently Boeing makes things that fall apart easily.
@davidaugust@lisamelton as much as I love shitting on Boeing and Starliner, the valve issue was with the first stage Centaur rocket made by ULA, not Boeing.
@Sonikku@davidaugust@lisamelton I mean, if you ignore it's 50% owned by Boeing and half it's board of directors are from Boeing and it was created so Boeing could get back into the launch business after being blacklisted by the Air Force since they stole docs from Lockheed. Sure.
