About time

Boeing just fired their space and defense chief:

After the débâcle with the starliner, the several issues with the USAF tanker program, it was about the only thing they could do.

Cheers,

They do seem to be the Abbot and Costello of space travel.

Last week I kept thinking how comical it was that Boeing couldn't figure out and fix a thruster problem on the brand-new Starliner spacecraft, that was in Earth orbit. But NASA was able to fix a thruster issue on the 47-year-old Voyager I which is currently well over 15 billion miles from Earth.

Problem is, in the big picture, Boeing's 'downfall' began long before he arrived....
