The real threat is the structural integrity during burn up. Boeing has a tendency to skimp on materials and materials analysis. Was the craft designed for long term exposure in the space debris belt?
I mean that only matters to share holders and NASA at this point, nobody is on board. Its either going to touch down in one piece or shatter into a million pieces, either way, the astronauts lived.
 
If it touches down Boeing will try to paint NASA as unfairly fucking them over.

If it explodes Boeings space section will be a joke for anything space related.

Either way Elon is laughing his ass off at both of them major SpaceX W and regardless of outcome I'm pretty sure NASA will be turning to him more rather than Boeing.

Starliner has zero commercial interest that I know of, and three manned missions contracted, which may have to occur after another demo mission carrying cargo to the ISS. The ISS gets deorbited around 2031. It has been nearly 2 years between each Starliner flight (December 2019, May 2022, June 2024). Something tells me Starliner-1 will miss its current August 2025 launch date.

Starliner is already a money loser and will remain that way even if they get their 3 payouts and an additional cargo payout. 7 years from now, if Starship is operational, it's a wrap. Predictions subject to change from ayy lmao concerns.
 
I think it will make it safely to the ground.

Remember if they came up with a 5% chance that this would go kablooie, they don't want to put people on it. But that's still 95% chance of it being Ok.
When a doctor gives you a 95% survival rate after a surgery, that assumes that your particular doctor passed med school and is familiar with the surgery procedure.
 
I didn't know this thread existed.

Boeing employees in Washington are going on strike on the 13th. I'm hearing it directly from multiple employees at their Everett facility but don't know the scale of it.

This picture is from a poster in their union rep's office.

Black is the year they've had labor strikes and red is how many days it lasted.
