    Boeing Starliner delayed again! NASA officially revealed what was wrong with this spacecraft...
    Alright, whether you have enough faith to be disappointed or not, the Boeing Starliner just got another delay!
    Specifically, in an October 12 announcement, NASA officials said the first manned test flight of Starliner has been delayed another month, until early April 2024.
    The reason for the change was not given.
    The target date for the first operational flight of Boeing spacecraft has also been delayed to early 2025 from summer 2024.
    NASA and Boeing previously said they were eyeing early March 2024 as the date for Starliner’s debut with astronauts, the Crew Flight Test (CFT). However, this was a projected ship readiness date, not an official launch date. NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams will take part in the CFT, en route to and from the ISS.
    This means that SpaceX will complete up to ten operational crew launches for NASA before Boeing does its first - and potentially half a decade after SpaceX's first, no less, right?
    Starliner suffered several problems on its first mission, called Orbital Flight Test (OFT), shortly after launch in December 2019 and did not arrive at the ISS as planned. The successor mission, May 2022's OFT-2, made it to the ISS and back to Earth.

      No, because NASA wants redundancy, so they are not stuck with one crew vehicle if problems develop. They don't want to be stuck without a vehicle, like what happened in the Shuttle program after those two disasters.

    The bigger question is if those 2 astronauts for the manned flight test are worried at all. Boeing in general has been far less than stellar in their safety and reliability (including Starliner). Boeing is a bloated mess of a company used to getting a pass for cost overruns, waste, etc. SpaceX has not been perfect, but they take every failure and learn from it to make the next launch better. They've exceeded the proposed launch cadence for the STS system by a lot and have a far better safety record.

    Boeing was a leader until it merged with a loser of McDonnell Douglas. McDonnell Douglas never designed a 'new' airframe from the ground up, preferring to just tweak an old design by adding a foot here and there to make it look better. Boeing since the merger has not designed a new commercial airframe from the ground up, just adding things trying to keep customers happy. It's never good to make changes and not tell the customer the what/why/how you did things in the dark. Not even a paper trail for the pilots to know something was different.

NASA killed two Crews of the NASA Space Shuttle program and one Crew could of been saved if NASA had a second launch provider ! Also two or more launch providers (Go Dream Chaser) will keep prices from rising too fast ! The Tech developed to return to the moon, can take US and the world to Mars and beyond !

    How hard is it to build a working space capsule? Stop trying to reinvent the wheel, and go back to what worked, the Apollo Capsule.
    Plenty of capsules at museums, so copying the original should not be a problem.
    With modern CAD/CAM techniques, Boeing should be able to get a new capsule up and running in no time. .

    Your opinion is absurd. Space-X Dragon was engineered to deliver people and crew to the ISS. Starliner was designed for far deeper space mission. Also note that Space-X has a freewheeling "build-launch-fail-try again" philosophy. This fine, but it's clear that NASA takes a different, far more careful process. They are different spacecraft, designed for vastly different missions. You also forgot to mention Starliner's trip around the Moon.
