As a European, it's so odd coming to the US. I was going to the US to see some NFL games. Picked a hotel 1,5 miles from Giant Stadium, thinking we could just walk there. Nope! 20 minute car ride, or 90 minutes by foot
It's really amazing how chill their cats are. I'm impressed how they managed to get Poki transformed from a trashcan diving maniac, to just being able to sit on a chair watching Jun cook
That's a very valid point
True. Didn't think of it that way
347 apparently, across 7 years of operation
I think messing up on NASA projects will hurt a company way more. Of course aviation is supposed to be safe, but even the 737 Max has flown thousands of hours. Comparing how many people that have flown on them, versus how many that have been hurt/killed, is still a small number, which is still is supposed to be zero of course.
Traversing space, a pinnacle of engineering, is quite another level of danger, and if you insist on your product being functional and safe, and then kills two astronauts, would cause a whole different level of backlash
In this particular situation, if Boeing says it's safe, I would be inclined to trust them, because if they make the return happen, and it fails, Boeing is done fore. As a crew member though, I would pass for sure and wait for a Dragon
I was thoroughly impressed with the skill level of the participants. Although I haven't been to a high level event since Covid, there were a lot of elements I've never seen done in women's battles
Now I really look forward to the mens event too, to see if they have evolved just as much
Imagine planning to be away for 8 days, and then ending up being away for 8 months.
If it's Boeing, you're not going (home)
At least they made it to the ISS Let's hope they manage to be able to fill in the roles of those not going to the ISS for the next rotation. I recall that they do a lot of training to be able to handle different operations on the ISS.
