      >The divergence came down to “technical expertise” as opposed to a trust issue

      >“It came down to a little disagreement about…risk,” NASA’s Commercial Crew Program Steve Stich agreed.

      Hope they are getting overtime pay for the whole extra 6 months

    2. First we have people “stranded” in the ocean after trying to visit the Titanic wreckage, and now in space. Do people really hate the earth’s surface so much?

    3. Correction: “At least” 2025

      Although Space X is much better company than Boeing or Tesla, so 2025 will likely be met

      Now the question is how many NASA personnel are going to mysteriously die!?!?!?!?!

      Boeing CEO should be sent up there to the space station and allowed to return only when those astronauts come back. And he should be sent in a Boeing spacecraft only – I am sure he has full confidence in his leadership and quality control under him!

      I cant wait to watch Matt Damon get left in space again when this becomes a movie!

    7. Starliner still has to make it home in 1 piece for everything to be priced in properly I guess…?

    8. In the year 2525

      If those folks in space are still alive

      If Boeing has pulled out of its nose dive

      Maybe on Earth those astronauts will arrive

    9. I think I read that for every month a human is in space they lose 2% bone density and muscle mass on average.
