Hotel Mars, Doug Messier, Weds, 2-25-26
Doug joined John Batchelor and myself to discuss the plight of the Boeing Starliner spacecraft. He went over the recent problems with the capsule that stranded astronauts on the ISS until SpaceX could bring them safely home using Dragon. Doug described the problems, issues in quality control and engineering with Boeing in recent times and probably solutions or ways to salvage Starliner for both NASA and Boeing. This was a one segment Hotel Mars program for approximately 10 minutes.
