NASA Big Trouble To Fix Boeing Starliner, SpaceX Dragon To Launch Crew...
The return date for Starliner astronauts seems farther away than ever before. This troubled spacecraft continues to disappoint NASA and the aerospace community, now with a new chapter titled "indefinite schedule".
Could this delay allow Starliner to remain on the ISS and witness Dragon's next feat in the upcoming Polaris Dawn spacewalk? It sounds ironic, but that possibility is becoming more plausible.
Join us today on Great SpaceX as we examine the contrasting situations of these two spacecraft: Starliner and Dragon.

A month has passed since Starliner lifted off to send two astronauts to the ISS, significantly overshooting its original schedule of about a week. Last month, we highlighted four postponements from NASA and Boeing, pushing the return date to July 2.
Surely, many of you, like me, doubted that this would be the final schedule. And, as expected, it wasn’t.
In the latest update, Steve Stich, NASA’s Commercial Crew Program manager, stated, “We don’t have a targeted (landing) date today. We’re not going to target a specific date until we get that testing completed.”

Explaining the delay, NASA cited the need for additional tests to better understand the issues with Starliner’s thrusters and helium leaks. They recognized that once Starliner returned and re-entered, further assessments wouldn't be possible, so they needed to conduct these tests now. Ken Bowersox, NASA Associate Administrator for Space Operations, stated, “We have the luxury of time,” indicating there was no rush to return while they could still gather valuable data, especially from the service module section that is jettisoned and not recovered at the mission’s end.
In addition to ongoing work on the ISS, further thruster tests will be conducted at the White Sands Test Facility. Stich explained that NASA will test a reaction control thruster system similar to those on Starliner, putting it through the same burn profile used during its approach to the ISS. The goal is to replicate the issues that caused the spacecraft to “de-select” those thrusters and perform inspections not possible in orbit.
