Stranded Astronauts On ISS Still ‘Confident’ In Issue-Plagued Boeing Starliner

Wilmore and Williams blasted off from Florida’s Cape Canaveral Space Force on June 5 and docked with the ISS one day later. Both astronauts were expected to spend just a week aboard the ISS and return to Earth by June 14.

However, five separate helium leaks in the Starliner’s thruster system and five failures of its reaction control system thrusters, critical systems for safely orienting the spacecraft into Earth’s atmosphere, were detected.

Right, right.

I remember when the leaks were detected …ON THE GROUND.

I remember when they said “There’s leaks, but we’re launching anyway.”
