Stranded NASA Astronauts To Return On SpaceX Craft

L be Alisia as a real blow to Boeing that has suffered its own wo with the 737s in in the like as well as uh NASA's reputation at stake of course NASA and Boeing were doing the Starliner they're now having to call Elon Musk to save the day yeah absolutely and you know Bill Nelson the NASA administrator said you know they've made mistakes in the past he brought up the past two shuttle disasters he said that they have been reaching out to employees telling anyone within their their reach to if they have objections that they need to speak up so obviously whoever had objections whatever science uh whatever test they had run whatever anything They Came Upon uh floated to the top and they realized this was just too risky so this was a trip that started out as 8 days it is now become eight months and we heard one of the officials there at Nasa saying that you know normally normal Expeditions can go up to 6 months and then some will go up to 12 months so this months still Falls within the window that they're used to it's not outside of it however Griff this is not news anyone wanted to hear especially their families who have been waiting and now we have two NASA astronauts who continue to be stuck in space they are and the questions going forward about Boeing's response this is by all accounts uh a catastrophic failure for Boeing in their reputation and now with Elon Musk SpaceX coming to the rescue and fortunately trying to get those astronauts back safely that is of course the Paramount top concern in this situation but going forward I think there are a lot of questions for NASA but even more so pointedly at Boeing and you know the as we listen to some of the astronauts there and and and uh Dana wiel the the manager there at the end getting into some of the details talking about the mission Focus we also learned in that press conference that uh the Dragon SpaceX Mission will have to go to fewer astronauts instead of four they'll just be able to send two this time to the space station to make room to bring Sunny Williams and Butch Wilmore back because of the failure and that's what they call it a failure of Boeing in NASA
