i mean, it's just a few peasants' lives. who cares? what's important is that shareholders and the rich can afford their third summer mansion and support yatchs.

All airlines should suspend their Boeing fleet at this point; and if not, government should step in and force them to.

Those astronaunts that are supposed to go up with a Boeing launch must be having severe anxiety by now.

Whole different division of Boeing. With the same level of NASA collaboration going on as SpaceX had for the crewed version of Dragon.

The main explody part is an Atlas V rocket built by ULA. Same rocket that did all these launches: https://www.ulalaunch.com/missions/-in-category/categories/rocket/atlas-5

ULA is a partnership between Lockheed and Boeing. It's still a Boeing rocket. And that rocket had a problem scrubbing the launch.

Launch was scrubbed. Again. This time two hours before launch. Privatization of space travel is working out of so well.

The company has previously been accused of a “shoot the messenger” strategy in which workers were punished for raising safety concerns.

Both literally and figuratively

If you work at the FAA circle the block when you arrive and leave work to see if someone follows you.

Because everyone knows this dumpster fire of a company will eventually be bailed out by the good taxpayers of this country. Pathetic leadership at all levels.

NegativeInf ,

The only bail out it should get is being turned into 5 different companies headed by actual engineers. Fuck these white collar criminals inserting themselves into companies and then destroying perfectly functional systems and products for the sake of additional profit. But there is no incentive to innovate without competition.

And as a second option? Cool. Boeing, it's been great but all admin is fired and you are rolled into NASA. K thanks.
