NASA Finally Orders SpaceX Dragon To Rescue Starliner Astronouts!

The Starliner project has been the most talked-about spacecraft in 2024, not for its success but for its failures. Since the spacecraft docked to the International Space Station, the issues have only gotten worse, prompting NASA and Boeing to work tirelessly to resolve them. Now, NASA has just made a very important announcement that might change everything, and we will talk about it in this video.
Before we delve any deeper, please make sure to subscribe to our channel for future updates.
NASA held a critical virtual meeting on July 10th to deliberate on the future of the Starliner spacecraft, and that was just two days ago. Following a string of setbacks and technical difficulties that have beset the program-including a helium leak and thruster malfunction in June-this meeting was called. As the space agency chooses the best course of action to guarantee the safe return of their astronauts, the stakes are enormous.
There is a lot of curiosity about NASA's recent decision. The space agency has stated that, in the event of a crisis, the Starliner spacecraft will have a fallback plan that involves SpaceX's Dragon capsule. This statement emphasizes how important SpaceX is to NASA's commercial crew program even now.
Despite the difficulties, NASA remains optimistic about the Starliner's potential. Engineers are working around the clock to address over thirty issues with the spacecraft's propulsion system. Most of these problems have been fixed, and the rest ought to be completed soon.
But testing has shown that Starliner's thrusters retain more heat than expected, making it more difficult to replicate flying conditions on the ground. As a result, more testing and modifications are needed to make sure the spacecraft is prepared for its return trip.
NASA and Boeing are concentrating on carrying out additional ground testing at the White Sands Test Facility in New Mexico in the near future. Understanding the spacecraft's propulsion system and making sure all problems are fixed before trying the return mission depend on these experiments.
Steve Stitch, the manager of NASA's Commercial Crew program, has stated that he hopes the Starliner would be prepared for its return by the end of July. But, there is not much time left, so the team needs to work quickly to complete this task.
The continuous efforts to resolve the thruster issues and helium leaks were emphasized by Mark Nappi, Vice President and Program Manager for Commercial Crew at Boeing. Engineers are testing flanges and seals in the propulsion system to find the source of the problems.
The Crew-9 mission scheduled for mid-August by SpaceX also has an impact on when Starliner will return. Due to the space station's limited capacity, Starliner must undock in order to accommodate the new crew. This increases the urgency of finding a quick solution to the spacecraft's problems.

I’m getting a little tired of KZbin articles with grandiose titles that then talk about everything but the promised NASA Finally Orders… Shame on you.

NASA and Boeing will have to swallow their pride in order for them to ask Space X to rescue them.

[@toms1348]

SpaceX, like Boeing is a government/NASA contractor. So no...there isn't any pride swallowing with NASA.

[@johnsmalley6483]

Boeing is just looking out for their shareholders..... Safety is not a priority (unless shareholders profit is a safety issue)

[@jsmith101]

Boeing is the failure here, they need to be stripped of all cost plus government contracts, period!

[@rolomaticz5009]

Yes, they gave us a $4 billion space dumpster. Elon delivered with only a $2.3 billion investment with a functional manned flight module.

[@rjung_ch]

spot on, all their contracts, especially their military side.

[@corenxg234]

Boeing should be revamped

[@dongeiger8393]

Click bate bullshit

[@my2cents645]

After the crap that Boeing's gone thru, the astronauts probably scared to ride that junk back. They are lucky they made it up there is my understanding. If a car breaks pull over. If a plane breaks, you might survive the crash landing, if your space craft breaks ...........????? ..... blood boils and not from heat.

[@rocistone6570]

Most of the crap that Boeing has gone thru has been brought on by Boeing and people like the bean counters they use as CEOs while engineers get shoved into broom closets.

[@timothycheuvront8284]

It's Boeing! They're already saying that some of the faulty thrusters aren't working but it "should be okay" to return. You getting in that ship?? I guess it'll be alright if you don't sit next to a door...

[@MikeGriffiths1234]

Good thing they don't REALLY need SpaceX because SpaceX is currently grounded.

[@rjung_ch]

Will they have to beg Roscosmos for help since SpaceX and Boeing can't do what they should do?

[@Gunter_Custom]

Yeah gonna have to lift that grounding order if you want your astronauts back ...😢

[@paulboger7377]

I haven’t heard anything about SpaceX to the rescue. The main thing is that the crew to come back safely.

[@rjung_ch]

Another Boeing issue, this won't stop soon either. They are not the company that they were when the 747 came out.

[@TheCalWillden]

Boeing CE) got a 45% raise while Boeing employees got a 1% raise over eight years. What exactly did the CEO get a 45% raise for and how do they justify his $30+Million compensation?

[@rjung_ch]

@@TheCalWillden Like most CEOs, he's overpaid and the employees get nearly nothing. That's capitalism in a nutshell. It's sick, wrong and shows that capital is being misused by those in the top floors of many companies. Shareholders vote on his salary, so if he saves them money to hand out to them, the shareholders will gladly get a short term gain vs a long term win for all. It's the sad truth of how the system is setup to work.

[@jackever]

Too many false statements There have been no orbits of starship,. NASA has not announced that Dragon will rescue the star liner crew. MAKE YOUR POST HONEST!!!

[@davidsusak6120]

It is interesting that SpaceX had a second stage failure last week after 7 flawless years……..

[@rjung_ch]

and have been grounded, so who's going to pick them up now? Roscosmos?

[@lotuselansteve]

Why? No mechanical device is 100% perfect. The fact that they have gone 7 years without a failure is way more interesting.

[@fotostephen]

i never heard NASA announce this - especially because FAA has stopped Space X falcon 9 from launching until their problem is fixed

[@kikufutaba524]

Maybe Boeing could sell Starliners to NASA as chicken coops?

[@thevewings]

Absolutely! I hadn’t even read the previous comment on bogus titles but see someone has beat me to it. Will not tune in here again

[@siuchen7140]

What a joke of 24th century America history..did US really landed on the moon 😂

[@philippostiglione2011]

Bring the Astronauts back safe. I believe that Starliner has more system problems than are being admitted to. Safety first, pride later.

[@francismeyrick]

CLICKBAIT++++++

[@audaxxx4202]

Has anyone got the timestamp for the bit that talks about NASA ordering spaceX to rescue the Astronauts please?

[@johnmilton7578]

It's at 8:27....

[@timreed353]

The only fix they can do in space is programming. They cant repair the thrusters in space. Whats will keep keep thrusters from malfunctioning on return causing the capsule to tumble on reentry. I think theres more that can go wrong than right.

[@joshuatolman8084]

I don’t know how dragon can fly to save the astronauts if F9 is grounded due to its last launch that ended with the Merlin engine in second stage experiencing a RUD.

[@costrio]

Isn't it a bit ironic that the recent oxygen leak on a Falcon 9 flight has been grounded by the FAA, pending investigation. Falcon 9 may not be available for awhile, I think.

[@Seriously-booked]

This is the end of NASA they will do everything to bring them back their way. Evan, if that means the life of the astronauts

[@JimmyRussell-zd5qo]

Expensive but,Starship can bring it down in one piece to study what went wrong.

[@RayBosan62]

Not sure how the failed SpaceX starlink mission July 11 is going to factor into this. The Falcon Nine rockets are currently grounded.

[@adwood201]

@4:52 you show Starship to be 9 meters from flap tip to flap tip, the barrel diameter is 9 meters then the flaps make a lot more......

[@brianbumgardner8704]

Sorry, but with all of the issues with boeing lately, would you go into space in something built by them?

[@stu176mmm]

What amazes me is that NASA are still sending ships into space when they are not fit for purpose. They lost 3 heroes on Apollo 1 ..... have they learnt anything at all?

[@brendabolling3424]

So proud of Spacex progress! ♥️🇺🇸👍🚀

[@yugalprasad1]

[@SuvashChandraRoy-my7rp]

and Elon Musk Space Project Falcon -9 and capsul may be more safly. so this time SpaceX will gainuare.

[@rodpettet2819]

Boeing must be placed in some sort of special administration and all current senior staff stood down while a complete investigation is carried out. All DEI hires company wide must be closely inspected. Were they the best applicant for their job? A new board must be recruited from technically competent persons and they get to select a new CEO. All bonuses paid to executives over the last10 years must be clawed back.

[@CanuckBeaver]

Maybe they can use Starliner to vsit the Titanic?

[@stevecam724]

Falcon 9 is grounded, there will be no Dragon launches until the monolithic FAA clear SpaceX

[@Cuchulainn42]

“Orders” ? You mean request, by means of contract for good and services.

[@jackferguson2491]

It's about time. Starliner should return empty or just allow to burn up on reentering. Cancel all contracts with Boeing

[@my2cents645]

They can bring it back on remote. I THINK?

[@stevenmorris3181]

Orders?

[@mitchberger2691]

Boeing needs to pay for the rescue.. CEO should work for free until the rescue bill is paid.

[@elfietube]

Where will NASA be without Space X Dragon or Starship? Starliner is an international embarrassment and will never be forgotten. I don't understand why any one still invest in Boeing ?

[@chitoon100]

[@rosjay_2119]

It didnt fail,this is all a cover up as to why the worlds best test pilots are staying in space, along with payloads from every country with a space program ( They have all put up crafts in the last 3-4 weeks, 15 + missions with more launching every week, why? )
