I'm a former inspector for SpaceX. As much as I love the Dragon, I love buttons you can push and actual flight controls. I'm on the boomer/gen x line so buttons make more sense to me. I love how the Starliner actually looks like it has a cockpit. That being said, Dragon is Star Trek whereas Starliner is Star Wars. I think Dragon is going in the right direction. Congrats to Boeing.
I'm a little older and I like the tactile response of a switch or button vs a numb touchscreen, I equate it to today's cars vs the cars we drove 30 years ago. But the new generation of spacers have grown up with touch technology and trust in automation and Dragon and future spacecraft are for the young astronauts of today and tomorrow.
@@gaaguim Yeah, Even Apollo is more organized than this spacecraft. Don't get me wrong, apollo has a lot more buttons, But seemingly any spacecraft which was influenced directly by politicians (like the shuttle) Seems to just have crap lying around everywhere. The Apollo spacecraft when the politics with it were just do what has to get done was stellar. Switches more, however, not a cluster F of stuff everywhere. It all had a compartment and was labeled and stowed properly. Apollo had peak cockpit layout imo.
I freely admit to being a die hard SpaceX fan. Yes, Starliner looks antiquated compared to Crew Dragon, but I am thrilled for Starliner, Boeing, and everyone involved with this tremendous accomplishment.
Sounds like you're an actual fan of space travel/exploration...not just a fanboy. What use in mentioning who you like? The end goal is the same, correct?
Great socks, Suni. I was looking at her bio and that woman can literally fly anything with rotors. Turn your lawnmower upside down and she'd make it fly.
great to see the contrast in design philosophy's between Boeing and SpaceX with respect to Astronaut UI. Starliner seems more traditional and "old school" vs Dragon
Aircrafts used to have black dashboards back in 1960.. Then someone realized that there are colors that will make your working environment more pleasant 😁
I don't know. Probably because you're not a test pilot / astronaut. You think about what matters in these situations. Having a Cuisinart doesn't really matter much.
Have you ever played Reentry? It is a simulator for Mercury, Gemini and Apollo spacecraft. Try that and you will see, why it definitely does not look like apollo. Apollo had phyiscal switches everywhere all around. Every single function was controlled by physical switches. Even the control of the audio recording tape. The only thing remotely similar to a tablet was the 10-Digit input for the AGC, the DSKY - which btw has huge buttons. I wonder why....
@@Egill2011 And the cooling system used more water than planned. And the thrusters failed. They had done work on the thrusters for 2 whole years before this flight because they didn't work during the last test either, and they were still crap. Starliner couldn't even dock on time because of all the issues. Starliner is a lemon that puts the lives of astronauts at greater risk than necessary.
Honestly looks mean jack shit. Capability is everything. This Spacecraft has some issues with helium leaks (this can force an immediate abort since helium is needed to pressurize the RCS tanks) but I am sure they will get it sorted out.
Looks like a scaled up copy of Alan Shepard's Mercury capsule... How can Dragon look so streamlined and spacious while this thing looks like build in the 60's...
Truly amazing watching live the astronauts in space shuttle. ...thanx to Sunni & Butch...you guys doing a great job. .Truly inspirational to youths who aspiring to become astronauts. Come back soon safely ...we all are waiting.
I am a bit split in half in my opinion: while the Dragon Capsule certainly looks more sleek, near, futuristic - I think you are screwed when the screen fails. In Starliner, everything looks like in the 60ies, brought forward to an 80ies design, with some screens added (like in an airliner). As a pilot (or commander) I am not sure, if I would not still prefer real buttons and handles and knobs to steer the spacecraft rather than just wiping on a touch screen (?). But maybe you could still have made the cockpit look a bit more like a Tesla rather than a Soyus! 😂
Screen failures are exceedingly rare, like beyond rare, and there are redundant screens for redundant screens. If you were in some type of situation where some external force caused every screen to go out, it doesn’t matter what spacecraft you’re in and whether it’s controlled manually or automatically by screens, you’re probably no longer living. If only the screen failed, the craft would still be piloting itself. It’s really a non issue.
It can be entirely controlled remotely, and the screens can be reconfigured how/whenever they want. I believe their tablets can take over as well - a total non-issue. Starliner has screens as well, and Dragon has critical switches as well. Starliner's extra buttons and joysticks don't mean anything, they're all flown by computer anyways.
ah another person who thinks the screen is the computer, if the screens for some reason went black ( which is extremely, extremely rare ) then it still can be controlled autonomously or by a person on the ground, hell for it it probably still can be controlled manually inside
Pretty cool She's the first astronaut that I've seen or noticed who have tattoos. At least I've never noticed any other astronauts on the spacestation showing their tatt's. Again, pretty cool.
Her zero-g hairdo is wild, but if I was a female on the space station, it would be a hairnet or ponytail for me. At 4:29 he mentioned practicing a safe haven event if debris is heading toward the space station. Wouldn't the debris be heading to the Starliner spacecraft too? They're doomed either way. I see no restroom in there. I guess that's done in their seats. :/
They only had two passengers for this mission so they used the remaining space to carry cargo. That is why you see the bags strapped up below the passenger seats.
Just imagine learning and training how to use every single control button, and fixing wiring in there. I'd be overwhelmed! It doesn't look like it, but that mic floating is going 17,500 mph is insane!
A salute of admiration to the crew on board the ISSS and specially those which willingly let themself be blasted into orbit on board these seemingly jury-rigged spacecraft.
I can't tell if the footage is perpetually slightly out of focus or if it's compression/upscaling. It's like this from the NASA broadcast so it's not an upload thing. I *suspect* given the bandwidth limits it's compressed
First time the US has two completely different and independant ways of getting into space! I love how Starliner looks so typically Boeing from the inside though! Might as well be the same plastics they use for the 787 :D
Sure it's not as sleek as the dragon but i honestly love all the physical controls rather than one big screen. And they still do have the screens as well, just shut off during this video.
When we can do what this well educated fighter pilot woman is doing ...then we will maybe have the rubber band question. None of our business until then.
How much did that cost? It carries how many people? It looks like an upgraded Apollo command module w/ vid screens. That's a 1960's design. Like the Russian Proton (which is a flying coffin). Sorry, I was expecting more from Boeings drawings - like enough room to at least move about and take a leak, like Dragon has. Enough for 6 crew members without crowding. It's also leaking helium and has a bunch of other issues. Boeing needs to be fired on this one. Let's hope Sierra's Dream Chaser is coming along better. I know we need more than one way up - Space-X - but this is NOT it.
The Starliner can carry up to 7 passengers and it is based on a Apollo design, which was ideal for re-entry and thermal protection. It also leverages the Space Shuttle's thermal protection system, so you could say that Starliner is a combination of two legacy spacecraft.
They used surplus boosters from the Shuttle program. This Artemis looks like an Apollo capsule..expanded by 20%. I want a refund of my taxes used to build this. Museum-piece.
@@deancarter9688 What are you even talking about? Starliner's primary baseplate TPS uses an ablative heat shield, nothing in common with the Space Shuttle.
@@EstorilEm It uses thermal blankets on its forward and mid heat shields, which is a technology that was used on and developed from the Space Shuttle program. Also the fact that it can carry up to 7 passengers (although a requirement driven by the ISS) is a similarity to the Space Shuttle.
This is a brand new ancient vehicle? Wow. We must appreciate the Dragon and the work Elon is doing at SpaceX. Thnx for the cool presentation. Safe travels back to Mother Earth 🌎.
Hey Suni! E essas meias coloridas? Hey girl, você está convidada para voar de Helicóptero sobre as montanhas! Você vai gostar, a temperatura é agradável. A Starliner em manual é segura? Dá para fazer? Ou é loucura? Muito complicado consertar aí sem recursos? Muitos tubos, muitas conexões e as válvulas? Acesso difícil?
The Starliner looks like it was built in the 1970's...........SpaceX's Dragon capsule has no switches, warning lights or control levers. It is all controlled automatically and has just two screens to show systems. The Dragon looks like the future, Starliner the past......
SX has the necessary backup switches for critical functions. Boeing has 2 operating systems in the starliner. Computer touchscreen type and full manual operations. Hence, all of the switches. Considering their aircraft systems failures, this is a great thing.
Starliner and Dragon are both quite a step up from a Soyuz. Being an astronaut is a job, and space flights are missions (assignments). They will gladly take any opportunity to be in space regardless of the spacecraft. It is what they volunteered and trained for.
Just one quick point folks, much has been made of the touch screens vs discrete controls. Touch screens are great if you can pull over and wait for someone to replace it, if they fail in space there is no way the crew can repair it. Mechanical switches can be swapped if one fails. There is a place for both on these craft but I'd sure like to know if the screen goes dark I can still steer the ship.
These ships are flown almost entirely automatically by computer, and can also be flown remotely. The screens are re-configurable and either position can control anything they want to. I believe their tablets can also take over the interface if needed. When was the last time you had an LCD screen fail, btw? The odds of a physical switch failing are MUCH higher ironically. Think of your local gas station's merchant / credit card reader. Those things get punched on hundreds of times a day, and last for years. Totally cliche argument with no ACTUAL data to back it up.
@@EstorilEm yes and when systems fail or communications break down you need to be able to still drive the ship. Starting as far back as Project Mercury the craft could be controlled from earth There's nothing wrong with touch screens but as spaceflight has proved repeatedly sometimes you still need to do it by hand. While what happen on Apollo 13, more likely than not won't happen again, a loss of a major part of the power on a ship will happen again, just like it does on another of Mr Musk's products Tesla. I like Tesla cars but like all complex machines things happen that no one planned for and the more basic and accessible the underlying control system is the easier it is to recover it.
@@MLampner ah yes because Tesla = SpaceX, the anti-musk people are so braindead they are worse than the Elon fanboys. Good job completely ignoring the two replies to your comments on LCD's rarely failing ( especially 3! ) and being still controllable either autonomously, or remotely by someone on the ground. Secondly a major powerloss is completely irrelevant to why switches and knobs are better than touch-screens, neither would work because all the thrusters, flight computers and anything else would be offline too.
For pilots, the cockpit of Starliner looks a lot more familiar. Truthfully, if I had to pick a spacecraft I would choose Starliner over Crew Dragon. Something about hyper-digitalized systems *in space* just gives me anxieties what with cosmic rays flipping bits and the many things that can go wrong. I would prefer greater control authority if required, and the system and flight controls of Starliner look to be much, much more comprehensive in scope.
Finally, someone who isn't "STARLINER BAD BECAUSE OLD AND BOEING BAD." I agree with your opinion on reliability, there should always be physical controls. However dragon is more reliable than starliner in its current state, and is much cheaper to operate.
Considering Boeing says it's "state of the art" and that was their goal as a capsule for "the future" - I'm hoping they take these comments as an insult lol. If you want a retro capsule in 2024, watch a sci-fi movie. It shouldn't be what we're paying for.
It's going to get in everything. I think it is rude to have your hair blowing or floating in people's faces, while some hairs shed and get stuck in machinery.
Glad to finally see it. As someone mentioned, the Crew Dragon is roomier, but this would appear more roomy were there not so much stowed where other crew would sit. The important thing is we now have three choices for going to the ISS, the tried and true Russian Soyuz, the Crew Dragon, and this spacecraft, and two can land on land. The next moon landing seems so far away however Kudos to China for getting their lander on the surface and Japan too though their lander is "tipsy" having too much Sake on its voyage (just kidding). Practically all our electronics in the US have something made in China or Japan, which is what keeps electronics reasonably priced compared to what they were years ago. I always feel humbled, as I did at age eight when Apollo 11 landed on the moon, by what Space tech has done in maintaining my own health, making 63 feel like I did when I was 30. That is why, regardless of the countries in Space, Space travel has shown us though the earth is flat to walk on, it's a beautiful blue marble in space. Once I flew high enough to see the curvature of the earth. The sky above was so dark and I felt this 'benevolence' come over me, remembering though it's a small world after all, we are not alone as mammals, as long as we do not fear spiders and snakes like Indiana Jones (just kidding), no spider or snake has ever harmed me or my old lady and our daughter. The ISS researches medicine and the effects of weightlessness. Anyone who has been on a modern roller coaster or dropped from the Stratosphere tower or other drop tower has felt the wonder of weightlessness and also should know it is not a good idea to jump out of a perfectly good aircraft without planning for a landing you can walk away from.
Great Video ! Are you going to do a docking with the Blue Origin and the SpaceX HLS in the future ? Does the Boeing Blue pressure flight suit work in the SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule ? How about a tour of the HLS soon ! tjl
@@arthurhamilton5222 Great Comment ! The LIDS Docking Port is used by Orion, ISS, Dragon, Blue Moon HLS and in the nose of Starship HLS ! The LIDS is an uni-sex design and they can all dock (mate) with each other ! NASA wrote a paper on the CEV (Orion) that included the LIDS Docking Port ! tjl
How embarassing must it be to present this piece of utter junk to public. What exacly did these two wrong that they are punished with flying this crap? Disciplinary was yesterday - now you have to fly Starliner :-D :-D :-D
There are 48 astronauts with NASA currently - sometimes up to almost 150. Many will never have the opportunity to be selected for a launch. If their name is called, you can bet your life on them accepting the mission, period. Plus this has the unique distinction of being a test flight, and they will forever be the first astronauts to fly on this new spacecraft - I don't care if the thing is a POS (which, I kinda think it is) that's still quite an accomplishment and major bragging rights, even WITHIN the astronaut community.

Old Space is best space.
Physical switches, probably
Have you ever played Reentry? It is a simulator for Mercury, Gemini and Apollo spacecraft. Try that and you will see, why it definitely does not look like apollo.

They always do. No one is forced to take missions.
@@M86-l2y i dont think so, why would anyone step inside this shitbox
Most just wants to fly to space as long as the vehicle is certified safe by NASA.
Starliner and Dragon are both quite a step up from a Soyuz. Being an astronaut is a job, and space flights are missions (assignments). They will gladly take any opportunity to be in space regardless of the spacecraft. It is what they volunteered and trained for.
It was built like this so as to get Billy Nelson's approval. It looks like it did in his day😂
it's neat how they orient themselves to a different direction "upwards" depending on which room they're in!
you ever been scolded for saying "upwards" astronaut?
physicists would scold me. there is no "upwards".
Absolute champs…., man that’s tight…. And man about trust … trust in others…, their integrity and work..👍
Dragon does not need this antiquated hose ventilation stuff, if I am not mistaken… (?)
Dragon does have hose ventilation when docked with the ISS. The hose is from the ISS, not Starliner.
The hose is so the craft doesn't have to waste any finite life support resourses.
Just one quick point folks, much has been made of the touch screens vs discrete controls. Touch screens are great if you can pull over and wait for someone to replace it, if they fail in space there is no way the crew can repair it. Mechanical switches can be swapped if one fails. There is a place for both on these craft but I'd sure like to know if the screen goes dark I can still steer the ship.
Dragon can be steered remotely from the ground. Not so sure about Starliner.
@@Bickertonlight Yes it can and was for part of the flight. There were several course corrections made from the ground.
These ships are flown almost entirely automatically by computer, and can also be flown remotely. The screens are re-configurable and either position can control anything they want to. I believe their tablets can also take over the interface if needed.
When was the last time you had an LCD screen fail, btw? The odds of a physical switch failing are MUCH higher ironically. Think of your local gas station's merchant / credit card reader. Those things get punched on hundreds of times a day, and last for years. Totally cliche argument with no ACTUAL data to back it up.
@@EstorilEm yes and when systems fail or communications break down you need to be able to still drive the ship. Starting as far back as Project Mercury the craft could be controlled from earth There's nothing wrong with touch screens but as spaceflight has proved repeatedly sometimes you still need to do it by hand. While what happen on Apollo 13, more likely than not won't happen again, a loss of a major part of the power on a ship will happen again, just like it does on another of Mr Musk's products Tesla. I like Tesla cars but like all complex machines things happen that no one planned for and the more basic and accessible the underlying control system is the easier it is to recover it.
@@MLampner ah yes because Tesla = SpaceX, the anti-musk people are so braindead they are worse than the Elon fanboys. Good job completely ignoring the two replies to your comments on LCD's rarely failing ( especially 3! ) and being still controllable either autonomously, or remotely by someone on the ground.
Secondly a major powerloss is completely irrelevant to why switches and knobs are better than touch-screens, neither would work because all the thrusters, flight computers and anything else would be offline too.
Compared to Dragon, Starliner is a total throwback to the Apollo era. Was this intentional or just Boeing lacking forward-looking designers?

Their version of cheap, quick and off-the-shelf.
@@arthurhamilton5222but it was not cheap or quick.
For pilots, the cockpit of Starliner looks a lot more familiar. Truthfully, if I had to pick a spacecraft I would choose Starliner over Crew Dragon. Something about hyper-digitalized systems *in space* just gives me anxieties what with cosmic rays flipping bits and the many things that can go wrong. I would prefer greater control authority if required, and the system and flight controls of Starliner look to be much, much more comprehensive in scope.
Finally, someone who isn't "STARLINER BAD BECAUSE OLD AND BOEING BAD." I agree with your opinion on reliability, there should always be physical controls. However dragon is more reliable than starliner in its current state, and is much cheaper to operate.
And you’re triggered by every single one of those comments 😂
Thank for showing us around 🚀 🪐
I'm in mtius and so good to see you

The cockpit of a 787 Dreamliner looks more sophisticated than this old relic from the 60’s and 70’s 😂😂😂
amazing video! just want everyone opinion, do the seats look 3d printed? it looks like FDM printing just by the way the light reflects off of them.
I love the retro style of the Starliner capsule. Bakerlite knobs and large switches. Expecting to see brass dials and valves and a compass.
Considering Boeing says it's "state of the art" and that was their goal as a capsule for "the future" - I'm hoping they take these comments as an insult lol. If you want a retro capsule in 2024, watch a sci-fi movie. It shouldn't be what we're paying for.
No elastic band to tie up all that hair?
It's going to get in everything. I think it is rude to have your hair blowing or floating in people's faces, while some hairs shed and get stuck in machinery.
Just for safety measure...
That hair could snag onanything.
Rubber bands don't work in space. Gravity.

Thank you all members tu space stetion, god bless you Jay sriram
Glad to finally see it. As someone mentioned, the Crew Dragon is roomier, but this would appear more roomy were there not so much stowed where other crew would sit. The important thing is we now have three choices for going to the ISS, the tried and true Russian Soyuz, the Crew Dragon, and this spacecraft, and two can land on land.
The next moon landing seems so far away however Kudos to China for getting their lander on the surface and Japan too though their lander is "tipsy" having too much Sake on its voyage (just kidding). Practically all our electronics in the US have something made in China or Japan, which is what keeps electronics reasonably priced compared to what they were years ago.
I always feel humbled, as I did at age eight when Apollo 11 landed on the moon, by what Space tech has done in maintaining my own health, making 63 feel like I did when I was 30.
That is why, regardless of the countries in Space, Space travel has shown us though the earth is flat to walk on, it's a beautiful blue marble in space. Once I flew high enough to see the curvature of the earth. The sky above was so dark and I felt this 'benevolence' come over me, remembering though it's a small world after all, we are not alone as mammals, as long as we do not fear spiders and snakes like Indiana Jones (just kidding), no spider or snake has ever harmed me or my old lady and our daughter.
The ISS researches medicine and the effects of weightlessness. Anyone who has been on a modern roller coaster or dropped from the Stratosphere tower or other drop tower has felt the wonder of weightlessness and also should know it is not a good idea to jump out of a perfectly good aircraft without planning for a landing you can walk away from.
Really There Is NO WAY We Can Built a DECENT Spaceship ???? This Starliner Looks Like an Effing Mess...Cables, Pipes Everywhere. Really BAD !
I love your hair!😀
Space X capsule looks a lot more roomy
Damn, looks like «back to the 80`s»..
Great Video ! Are you going to do a docking with the Blue Origin and the SpaceX HLS in the future ? Does the Boeing Blue pressure flight suit work in the SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule ? How about a tour of the HLS soon ! tjl
No. Different designs. Orion is designed to dock with the SX HLS.
@@arthurhamilton5222 Great Comment ! The LIDS Docking Port is used by Orion, ISS, Dragon, Blue Moon HLS and in the nose of Starship HLS ! The LIDS is an uni-sex design and they can all dock (mate) with each other ! NASA wrote a paper on the CEV (Orion) that included the LIDS Docking Port ! tjl
Anyone else notice NASA had comments turned off for their version of the tour?
So? Life isn't a series of consipiracies, son.
Yes I did notice. I know they knew the public wouldn’t be impressed. I’m not impressed with this death trap!
@@rdnorris7355comments turned off precisely due to Boeing -hating internet trolls such as ^^this one ^^
@@kitcanyon658 But...but....Joe Rogan tells me what to think.
Trolls and brain rot, can’t stand it
Looks like an Edsel compared with Dragon!
Wow there’s a lot of bots/trolls in the comments who seem to judge a spacecraft purely by the size of the touchscreens
Oh cool. Thanks for touring us through the spaceship that does not work.
Wow she went back to the ISS
Looks like modernised Apollo from 60s😂😂😂 compared to CrewDragon which looks like from latest Star Trek 😮
The control panel in Starliner looks like the flight's engineer station in an old B52 bomber
Prob used parts from a B52. Boeing couldn't spend all that nasa funding on actually creating something useful. They had to pay their own bonuses
How embarassing must it be to present this piece of utter junk to public. What exacly did these two wrong that they are punished with flying this crap? Disciplinary was yesterday - now you have to fly Starliner :-D :-D :-D
There are 48 astronauts with NASA currently - sometimes up to almost 150. Many will never have the opportunity to be selected for a launch. If their name is called, you can bet your life on them accepting the mission, period. Plus this has the unique distinction of being a test flight, and they will forever be the first astronauts to fly on this new spacecraft - I don't care if the thing is a POS (which, I kinda think it is) that's still quite an accomplishment and major bragging rights, even WITHIN the astronaut community.
Cool socks !!
