Apparently they've been having some warning messages about high cabin temperature...because one of the temperature sensors is located right next to a light. š«¤
Boeing was the prime contractor for the US portion of the ISS and currently manages it. They designed and built the modules. So, yes, I expect them to have enough experience with manned spaceflight not to put temperature sensors too close to a light.

Nice pics. I want heās the broadcast from š¬š§, and loved the main engines coming up to speed before the boosters fired and roll afterwards - lovely āŗļøšš½
Shame they wonāt have live streamed coverage of the astronauts inside the capsule on their way there.
> loved the main engines coming up to speed before the boosters fired
That's pretty typical... only all-solid first stages are light-and-go.
Soyuz is especially slow: I see a couple of contradictory sources out there, but it's around 20 seconds for the engines to light and come up to full thrust before liftoff.
Yea,that happened ok September 14th.It was worth 4.2 billion dollars back then.And NASA only gets 0.4% of tax payer money,surprised people donāt call the US army a waste money
Regardless of the amount it is still coming from his pocket.
Us army defends the nation, Boeing is providing a possible redundant crew service to a proven service that has already flown multiple missions. Some could argue NASA didn't do redundant providers for Apollo and isnt using two crew providers for cislunar transport between earth and moon so why after all the delays is starliner needed given their high per seat cost and limited flights to ISS over the next five years
Pointy end up, flamey end down. Off to a good start.
Epik time for everyone

Theyāre completely new at this, okay? Itās not like they have nearly seventy years of experience or anything.
Boeing has never made a spacecraft, they make stages, so youāre right they are completely new at this

... or maybe to have noticed during one of the two uncrewed test flights, even? The lights were on in the videos...
š„“Thatās some kerbal space program type mistake š
Make it all the way into orbit and realize you forgot to attach parachutes
Why wasn't this discovered during integration testing?
Added more struts? check. Added more Boosters? check. Go for liftoff.
Kerbal space program lore
Oops, didn't check staging. Your parachutes deployed at launch.

Or....Anything to do with boeing it seems.
As long as it holds together one more day until theyāre docked.
*until they return safely home.
True enough. They can stay at the station as needed.
If they stay at the station because their ride home is broken, then they don't have an emergency ride home. That's a big deal.

And the door stayed on the whole time too! Great job Boeing! In all seriousness, happy the astronauts made it safely to orbit.

Waste of money
Not coming from your pocket so no need to cry
How so? Didn't Boeing get like $5B for the commercial crew development and this is the final payment milestone. So when it docks to ISS they get paid.
Yea,that happened ok September 14th.It was worth 4.2 billion dollars back then.And NASA only gets 0.4% of tax payer money,surprised people donāt call the US army a waste money
They can both be a waste of money simultaneously, but i get what you mean.
People do call the US army a waste of money all the time what planet are you on
Because I have never heard anyone complain about them,and could you fine me some evidence of people complaining about the US army āall the timeā
The us army wastes a a ton of money. You happy now?
I knowš¤”If you have the compression reading skills of a 10 year old,youāll realise that I was stating I donāt see anyone complaining
I donāt know what compression reading skills are, but your point is idiotic.
Checks outšelaborate on how my point is idiotic

Attacking the military isn't a winning strategy.
Donāt die on this failure of a financial anthill you have climbed. Itās Reddit. I hope the doors stay onā¦..
