This will never work. I’ve been told the earth is now flat as a pancake with frozen edges.

That is not true. If the earth was flat, cats would’ve pushed everything off by now.

I wonder how many astronauts that thing will hold? I saw one company (can’t remember which one) that had a capsule that would hold 5 or 6.

While no people will be on board the capsule in December, Boeing plans to fly a dummy.

How long will he be off of the campaign trail?

**I wonder how many astronauts that thing will hold?**

Well, if the astronaut is like that clone of Michael Moore, that is driving that specialized rocket hauler......

One, and that is a maybe.

He won’t. There are voters up there. US citizens and non citizens on the space station. They need to be smiled at and lied to in person just like the citizens and non citizens down here.

If successful, this demonstration mission could pave the way for NASA astronauts to fly on the Starliner sometime next year.

That is great news. Since Buttcrack Hussein killed the shuttle program and declared the NASA's mission is muslim outreach, our astronauts have had to hitch rides aboard Soyuz rockets, much to their delight. That's beyond embarrassing, it's downright appalling.

Either you kill shuttle or it kills you.
Hope this one it better designed than both SS and 737 Max.

That’s for sure. The shuttle didn’t have the money or priority that Apollo did. The shortcuts they took, which also compromised safety, were pretty bad. It’s actually amazing we only lost two of them.
