If they refresh it and make the design more round I think it will do well. Test drove a ND PRHT 3 weeks ago and although a fun car felt cramped and not as “open” as my NA or a NC I drove. the ND is a great car, more well built, better tech and handles better IMO, but just felt small when you are sitting in it.

I would really love some reporting on how Boeing was awarded $4.2B for this contract while SpaceX was awarded only $2.6B and SpaceX is saving these astronauts.

I really wonder about all the military spending and what our ROI on it really looks like by continuing to fund Lockheed, Boeing, General Dynamics, Raytheon,…

I did know that (but you’re much kinder at explaining things to us than I am!). I still don’t love it, it’s got a tiny bit of normalization of deviance feel in my book. But I suppose going forward we’re going to need to rely on high-fidelity simulation instead of physical rehearsals or we’re never going to do all the…

As far as the last paragraph goes, I think the people you should be least concerned about are Williams and Wilmore, although I’m sure they’re very frustrated about not being able to complete their mission. They had additional maneuvers they were going to perform post-undocking, and now they will never get to do those.…

Oh, it would be so nice if they could do that. And if they could, Boeing would go for it in a heartbeat, actually. NASA would be ordering them to right now. Unfortunately, it’s not an option, for several reasons.

It’s not two days in a spacesuit.

BTW, just a random factoid you might be interested: back when the Commercial Crew contracts were being competed, one of the long-shot contenders was United Space Alliance. They actually did submit a proposal to continue operating the Space Shuttles. The killer (other than the huge operating cost - the program cost…
