Boeing Starliner In Big Trouble To Return Astronauts! NASA Give Up...
Crunch time for both Boeing and Nasa.

Call SpaceX for help? No, Boeing will die of shame.
So, Boeing and Nasa have come up with a temporary solution: delay the return date.
However, with Starliner's current status, especially its new fifth helium leak, will that solution work?
Find out everything in today’s episode of Techmap.

“It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever experienced on landing,”
This is the feeling of Nasa astronaut Butch Wilmore after his unforgettable landing in the winter of 2015. By then, he was returning to Earth in a Russian Soyuz spacecraft after spending 167 days aboard the International Space Station (ISS).

The landing location was in the solid ground of Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan. The Soyuz spacecraft descended by parachute and its braking at the bottom served to cushion the impact in the instant before it hit the ground. However, with the ice-covered soil in the cold Kazakh November, those did not work. "I didn’t get the breath knocked out of me, but I was still shocked.”.
For his upcoming reentry mission on Boeing's Starliner, Wilmore expects a gentler go of things.
