So it was supposed to launch in April, now it’s August.. in August what’s it gonna be. We went to the moon back in the sixties but now it’s so hard to even launch a Spacecraft in 2019.
Delays are very common in the aerospace industry. It happens on everything from airliners to spaceships and launch vehicles. It's a dangerous business if you don't get it right, so it's better to be careful and spend a little more time than have an accident. And space hardware is especially critical as there are so many ways to get killed when going to, from, or simply being in space. Speaking of the sixties, let me remind you of Apollo 1 when NASA learned the very hard way why developing even something as small the crew capsule can cause great tragedies. A design flaw killed three astronauts, and I am sure everyone involved in building space hardware wants to avoid accidents as much as possible. Besides, Boeing is working on their own dollar. So if they get delayed, they are simply spending their own money, unlike when NASA gets delays and tax-payers get angry.
@@markviereck4547 And yet, you complain about delays? Surely, this isn't the first delay you've seen, considering you are Wernher Von Braun's father or something.
almost ready for flight while this is going on next Wednesday the docking port where CST-100 will dock is being installed in preparation for the first docking on the 28th of August two weeks from now.
Chemical composition. Aviation fuels consist of blends of over two thousand chemicals, primarily hydrocarbons (paraffin, olefin , naphthene , and aromatics), additives such as antioxidants and metal deactivators , biocides , static reducers, icing inhibitors, corrosion inhibitors, and impurities.
Her career so far yes, she only just started obviously being so young, And so you think because Apollo used Ablator heatshields we already know everything there is about them?
As far as I understand, this heat shield is significantly lighter than the old types of ablative heat shields. Which means it is probably made from different materials, or at least in a different way. I don't know anything about plasma dynamics, materials and ablation, but I think it's a bit more complicated than: it's invented, and that's it. There are always refinements to be made. And in spaceflight, keeping things light is very important, as it leaves more room for something more useful, like payload. Also, her "entire career" has been short so far as she seems quite young. She will have lots more to do at Boeing in the coming years, I imagine.
Anybody else wants that squishy?
Want to see Starliner fly and definitely want a Starliner squishy as well. :-)
Squishy?

Best of luck you guys 🎉
4 years to redesign heat resistant nugets? What did they use before, ice cubes? lol
Camil Moujaber - The space shuttle used lightweight ceramic tiles.

Mark Viereck - Are you advocating that they launch before everything is ready? Not wise.

Antares really, I’ve been closely following the space program since 1962. I’ve been to 24 launches .. thanks for the update. Didn’t know that. 😉

Antares lol. Nice one.
Sejam bem vindos ao meu país🇧🇷🇺🇸🛩️✈️🚀
Interessante!
Olá do BRASIL! 🇧🇷🇧🇷

If it’s not Boeing I’m not going
If it's Boeing Im not going.
thousands of degrees? thats not a unit of anything?
you mean thousands celsius? or kelvin?
Probably referring to Fahrenheit, but really thousands in any mainstream temperature scale
Congrats Boeing!

Hopefully you didn't cut corners...
Rocket on !!!✌
Boeing you guys seemed to be out of CONTROL in 2020

Thanks
Boeing brand = Crash
So
So let me understand, you've spent your entire career working on something they designed and tested great in the 60's?
"Entire career" is really only four years..it's not like they have a hardware store from the 60's with heat shields specifically fit for this capsule.
You can’t just dig up a heat shield from the 60s, slap it on a ship and call it a day
Her career so far yes, she only just started obviously being so young, And so you think because Apollo used Ablator heatshields we already know everything there is about them?
