The Starliner drama has been a major setback for Boeing’s space ambitions, adding to years of struggle to get the capsule off the ground and keep up with rival company SpaceX.

    Boeing takes it in the nuts.

    Not enough billions in taxpayer dollars I guess.

    Of course they waited until Saturday to announce this while the markets are closed. Boeing will plummet on Monday.

      Boeing will take a hit, but less than if the thing has fucked up during reentry and killed them …

      I dunno man, part of me wants to buy the dip. They’re “too big to fail,” they’ll get enough corporate welfare to bounce back. The question is when.

        Na this has been an unprecedented scale of fuckups. Dont make investment decisions like timing the market. Make investment decisions based off the quality, scalability and value of the company itself. Warren Buffet 101.

    Okay so they are stuck then. Right?

    Wouldn’t it be interesting if they make it back safely on the X snap dragons capsule thing and then they bring back the boing capsule and it burns up? It mean, if nothing happens it’s okay, but If it does!?
