Sure but the rocket being used is Atlas V which is from the Lockheed half of the partnership.

Delta series is what Boeing brought to the ULA partnership. Which they acquired from buying out McDonnell Douglas.

Boeing didn't design either rocket ULA has flown.

ULA is a whole separate entity though. It's not part of Boeing or Lockheed directly. And even then it's main engineering teams are former Lockheed and Rockwell people. There is very little about ULA that's truly Boeing. And Atlas V is based off Atlas III which Lockheed made on their own before ULA became a thing in 2006.

Whole different division of Boeing. With the same level of NASA collaboration going on as SpaceX had for the crewed version of Dragon.

The main explody part is an Atlas V rocket built by ULA. Same rocket that did all these launches: https://www.ulalaunch.com/missions/-in-category/categories/rocket/atlas-5

Sadly the launch was scrubbed. Because ULA noticed something they didn't like with a valve on the 2nd stage of their rocket.

Hopefully something ULA can fix without having to take the whole stack apart.

Probably not much. The capsule has already been tested and flown to ISS without a crew. This is finally the first crewed test. It was supposed to happen I think last year. But NASA tore down the capsule one more time and asked Boeing to change out some wiring harness shielding just to be extra careful about high oxygen environment fire potential.

ULA's Atlas rocket which is taking the capsule up has been successful in every launch as far as I've paid attention back to 2007 when it first started being used. Including I believe all of the Mars rover missions.

I get all the hurr durr Boeing jokes are going to happen. But that's commercial airline Boeing. Not MIC/NASA Boeing. And ULA has a fantastic track record. I'm going to be sad if Blue Origin really does end up buying them out.

KMag. He even got a 10 second penalty for this.

So to answer your question, no you cannot just dive at a corner like that from behind. Had they been alongside it would have been Logan's fault. But KMag was trailing by enough it was on him to back out of that bad idea for an attempted pass.

This sounds almost exactly like what happened to a colleague of mine last year. Guy aspirated some food. Lead to an infection. Turned into pneumonia. Died.

All that happened within 1 week.

Run fiber with the new pipes too.

John was also in the process of deposition for an appeal to a case he already lost in 2019. If Boeing wanted to kill him they would have before the 2019 trial.

And by the time he complained in 2017, both 787 and 737 Max that he was spilling details on had been flying for years. The FAA investigated and found a decent chunk of the issues had already been addressed. So it wasn't even timely information by the time John spoke up.

Welcome to Lemmy. Lots of terminally online idiots here. I was hoping this place would be like old Reddit. Turns out it's just as bad as current Reddit without as many bots.

Should GM be responsible for a tire on your car going flat after you've owned it for 15 years?

Shitting on Boeing is getting clicks. So the news keeps reporting on every bit of anything they can find related to them. The incident rate isn't going up. At the same time there have been a few issues with Airbus planes but that's not getting engagement as much so the news isn't focusing on them.

More proof farming and society in general were a mistake.

Iran has been shaping them into what they are now though.

Exactly. He's that fucking petty that no other motivation is needed to explain this. There isn't any long term scheme here. It's simply that he got embarrassed and has to get revenge.

I can't wait to shit on Newt Gingrich's grave.

Has nothing to do with Israel. Russia has been asking all their allies for help with supplies or support in Ukraine. This includes Iran. They met multiple times last year. Ultimately Hamas attacked Israel. Hamas doesn't execute a plan at the scale that happened without Iran knowing. It doesn't take any propaganda to put these pieces of the bigger puzzle together.

Well Iran did start this latest round (using Hamas for plausible deniability) at the request of Russia to make a distraction for Ukraine.

They might have even taken into account Bibi being a monster and going too far in retaliation. That makes attacking Israel the perfect target to split US attention.

So at this point I expect Xi to go after Taiwan as soon as the US election is over. While Russia continues on Ukraine. And Israel does Israel things with Iran goading them on indirectly.

You're touching on the most common misconception. Most people would pay less in taxes than they currently do in insurance premiums. The cost of healthcare would go down in the US with single payer. Even the ultra conservative Koch family funded Cato Institute found this to be true.

There is way too much profit motive in the US healthcare system. So much so we pay double what other nations do for some procedures with generally worse outcomes. Last report I saw is the US spends 16% of GDP on healthcare. The next closest nation was Japan at 10%. Yet the US was among the lowest life expectancy of all G20 nations.

Iran intentionally caused all of this when they had Hamas attack in October. The whole point of Hamas starting shit was to derail peace talks between Israel and the Saudis. With one of the main focus areas being an official Palestinian state.
