Elon Musk Exposed Why NASA Chose SpaceX To Rescue Starliner Astronaut...
Boeing's cold-blooded nature was on display more than ever during the Starliner crew test flight.
Perhaps, Nasa ultimately realizes this.
It explains why they chose SpaceX to rescue the astronaut duo.
Find out everything in today's Techmap episode.

Two Nasa astronauts, Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore who traveled to the International Space Station in a 8-day mission, now end up staying there for over eight months because of problems with the Boeing Starliner spacecraft.
To add insult to injury, Nasa announced that the crew will return on Boeing's rival SpaceX in February 2025. This further cemented in the public mind that Starliner had indeed failed a crucial mission that, if successful, would have certified the Boeing-built spacecraft as capable of carrying humans. By contrast, if fails, Boeing will likely conduct one more crewed test flight that could cost the company additional 400 million dollars. Subsequently, their first operational mission would then be further delayed and the $1.6 billion loss figure would continue to rise, threatening to cancel the whole program.

It explains why while Nasa's leadership was a headache in weighing the risks to safely return astronauts and Starliner, the Boeing engineer continuously called for permission for Starliner to bring humans back. Of course, with the bitter lessons gained from the Space Shuttle's era, Nasa acknowledged that they should strictly follow their core value: human safety. Frankly, I think they should have done it before putting Suni and Butch into the Calypso in June.
Simultaneously, through this event, Boeing's cold-blooded nature has been demonstrated obviously much more than ever. They focused only on the company's stock price after the Starliner incident instead of the safety of the crew. Thus, it would not be unfathomable as Boeing's manager continuously tried to downplay the trouble even though the reality was completely opposite.
Rudy Ridolfi, a former commander of US military space systems has pointed out the horrific scenarios if astronauts were forced to return to Earth in the troubled Calypso.
