Good video re: Starliner. I have believed (from the time the shuttle was first developed when I was younger) that humanity needs to get away from space capsules. The shuttle was an early attempt at reuse, you simply cannot recover a second stage if a capsule is sitting on top of it.

u use feet and hands and lbs and other weird things to measure, thats why the russians beat u to the T on every part pre and post Apollo. u americans want to be different "just because" and never try to follow conventions of communication or anything for that matter u make it so difficult for the world to deal with you and you expect every entire person to cater to you. you are covering a scientific topic willis use metric like a nhormal human being we are not selling lbs of potatoes or selling houses in feet in the usa. we are talking about rocket science and the thing is ur using metric system half of the time because its natural to do so. what is not natural is jumping from imperial to metric confusing ur audience. here u lose credibility so fast when u seem lazy. to lazy to convert ur measurements into something that actually makes sense. think about it dont dismiss this as hate comment. its criticism.

saying spacex winning because 1st and lower budget I argue is unfair because spacex they didn’t start from scratch and had experience and design help with cargo dragon v1 learn from. Crew dragon v2 has less mass constraint compared to starliner due rocket they planning on using. Crewed dragon v2 wasn’t design to be rapid reused while being crewed rated from beginning but applied later on where starliner was from Star. starliner doing first for America landing on land with spacecraft capsule. Also calling starliner unsafe because made by Boeing is absurd. Starliner has more physical redundancy than crewed dragon and starliner was more design for professional trained astronaut. NASA really want this space capsule safe for their astronaut.

If you watched the video you’d know that SpaceX was leveraging experience from their already flying capsule, something that Boeing didn’t have. Additionally Building the Saturn V first stage 50 years ago with technology that has quite literally ceased to exist isn’t exactly going to be relevant to a space capsule in the modern age, what is relevant is that Boeing has industry experience, and knew how to run such a program, even if it was entirely different in nature to the ones they did before

Can the whole Space Shuttle program be a giant hoax? How could they have sent such a giant thing into earth orbit, while SLS cannot carry something really heavy and big in real life. For example, SLS could not even launch James Webb, so NASA used ESA's Ariane 5. But how could the less powerful set up for Shuttle send 100 ton Shuttle into orbit?

@@DavidWillisSLS Don't you think the payload (Shuttle, the orbiter) is way too big compared to what other rockets are carrying to LEO? Maybe it's designed to just go around the earth 1-3 times and slowly come back to earth. not properly orbiting. Orbit speed needs to be Mach 25. That's not easy even for SpaceX Starship with 30 rocket engines. As the Shuttle have wings, it could even stay for 3-6 hours in near space as it slowly falls down.
