Bad year for Boeing!

Coming after failure to solve problems with their 737max
airliner, the failure to get their space tourism venture into the
correct orbit today must be further embarrasment for them?
I wonder if it is another software malfunction?

A bad year to say the least.
Boeing is facing the worst crisis in its 103-year history

Humiliating for them isn't it... *snigger snigger*

Maybe we can get the N. Koreans to give our astronauts a lift to space; all of our Nazi scientists have died off.

From what we hear Savvy , Boeing only have problems with their
software? I think the hardware works ok!
A change of software creators would possibly help, maybe one
that understands engineering?

Re: Bad year for Boeing!

Boeing is suffering from the disease that happens to all companies, or nations, when they become too content with living off of the fruits of their past successes. They have cut corners to raise dividends and the cuts are coming home to roost.

What I find interesting, that at the very time that we do not have the means to fly our own people into space, Donald Trump creates a "Space Force." The Draft Dodger in Chief wants to expand our never ending wars into a new dimension.

Perhaps the Donald reads too much cheap science fiction Savvy?
But l was looking at a website about what NASA is planning for
the next couple of decades concerning the moon and mars!
It seems the plans are quite advanced and sound very ambitious
and exciting? Pity l wont be around to see it!

Not much chance of Trump reading Asimov. Trump has not read a book since college, and even then, someone may have been paid to read it for him.
