NASA on Friday announced, in very gentle and politic terms, that Boeing is on their shitlist after the Starliner clusterfuck. “The timing and configuration of Starliner’s next flight will be determined once a better understanding of Boeing’s path to system certification is established. This determination will include considerations for incorporating Crew Flight Test lessons learned, approvals of final certification products, and operational readiness. Meanwhile, NASA is keeping options on the table for how best to achieve system certification, including windows of opportunity for a potential Starliner flight in 2025. NASA will provide more information when available,” the agency wrote.
