Honestly… who would dare to risk reentry in that piece of shit.
who would dare to risk reentry in that piece of shit.
Keyboard warriors of the internet.
I saw comments mentioning how it was a minor annoyance and they’d be back home in the same craft same week or something close.
Kids, this is why you take anything from the internet with healthy dose of skepticism.
Listening to NASA’s official press releases isn’t exactly what I’d call being a keyboard warrior. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with using the most authoritative source as your primary world view, in most cases.
Fingers crossed for the Boeing capsule to safely complete reentry, straight into the CEO’s office 🤞🤞
I feel bad for Nick Hague and Stephanie Wilson, the two SpaceX Crew 9 crew members who were bumped to make room for the returning Boeing crew.
EDIT: Looks like there’s some disagreement in NASA as to which American gets the commander’s seat, see below.
Clear headline. 👍
No “StUcK iN sPaCE.”
It’s quite a thing that they are up there for so long “due to Boeing.” Though. But that’s some exhausted discourse. Whew.
They are certainly there with no means to return until February, which they will do on a different company’s capsule, from a mission that was supposed to last 8 days and instead will last 8 months. That sounds like stuck to me.
Whose fault is it, if not Boeing’s?
Maybe I’m just a jelly earthbound dude but having my space trip extended from 8 days to 8 months? Fuck yeah. I would LOVE the chance to be in space long enough to get bored of being in space.
Problems caused by being in space for too long? I’d be grateful to have them.
Risk my life just to leave the atmosphere and possibly die in space because it’s hard at so damn dangerous to humans? Sign. Me. The. Fuck. Up.
I’m sure they kiss their families but man am I envious.
“sure getting murdered is bad but at least you don’t have to worry about your student loans”
Person wants thing, acknowledges the risks involved and still wants thing.
Envious of people who are experiencing thing. Posts about it.
Gets a response from some stupid shit like you. Please stop breathing you’re just a fucking oxygen thief.
Boeing is going to undock and try to land uncrewed in Sept.
SpaceX is going to send up their next mission with two empty seats for a February return of the stuck astronauts.
In an emergency, the current SpaceX capsule could theoretically bring back the two stranded astronauts, but that’s not a realistic solution for anything short of a disaster.
Just imagine if it really craps out and doesn’t make it, thankfully without anyone inside… but still…
