June 5, June 5, Boeing He managed to launch his manned ship into space Starliner After several Falling deposits and attemptsThe questionnaires that day could also interrupt the mission, because shortly before the launch, Helium leak was discovered. Nevertheless, they finally decided to launch it, as Boeing Starliner is ready to support five leaks of this type. Unfortunately, the remaining four occurred shortly after their arrival at the International Space Station (EEI), so for security it was decided to return the ship to Earth without a crew, leaving two crew members In a trap in space for an indefinite timeThe questionnaire now, finally, seems that everything is ready for his return in March next year. Nine months later.
After the Boeing Starliner vacuum returned, NASA has reached an agreement with Spacex To return the two commands of the ship back, Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams. Elon Mask adopted the commission, so in September last year he took advantage of the use of the ship The crew of the dragon In which two astronauts rode in the United States to leave two places intended for Wilmore and Williams empty. However, in this case, it was NASA, which refused such a decision, since the replacement mission was not yet ready.
And although Boeing Starliner crew members were just about to go through Eight days in spaceThe incident was used with a ship to perform missions in the United States. NASA needs other astronauts to cover the work that they did, and they were not yet ready for a trip in September. But finally they are. In March next year, if everything goes well, Wilmore and Williams will return home. Again, it will be SpaceX SHIP The person responsible for transporting them to the destination, although with some changes.
New plans for the crew of Boeing Starliner
According to information from France-Press Agency Separated The science of warningA return trip will happen The next March 12Questionnaires but this time it will not be responsible for the transportation of astronauts The crew of the dragonBut the ship Endurancewhich needs less additional processing.
Meanwhile, Boeing continues to work on improvements to Starliner, a ship, which, according to the latest published data, has already caused losses 523 million dollars. It is clear that the most important thing is people and that the wells of Williams and Wilmore were the first. That is why he did not want to risk his life on a return trip. Fortunately, they recently stated that they were ongoing with high morality and have not yet been stunned by their duty in the United States, so it seems that at least for this part, there is nothing to be afraid of.
However, the situation is much less encouraging. What happened to Boeing Starliner to give so many failures? The company’s engineers are already investigating him and, of course, they did not give up from the ship. But it is clear that before making a new attempt there will still be a lot to improve.
