your daily reminder that the United States Space Force has a classified “fleet” of space planes very similar to the Space Shuttle but with no crew and they only do military stuff

they’re called X-37s and every once and a while one will launch, stay in orbit for a few months, and come back down
what they do up there is classified
we have no idea what is on board


(it’s probably just spy satellites and stuff but i like to tell people this because as much as people like to joke about the Space Force, it’s a serious organization that actually does stuff)

so i’m sure you guys know boeing at this point
the airplane company that keeps having doors fall off their planes and other wacky events

well a lot of people don’t know that Boeing is also a space company and has launched things into space

and now they’re working on the first crewed flight test of Boeing Starliner, which is a new vehicle meant to take people to the International Space Station

let’s go over a brief history of Boeing Starliner because it is the worst crewed spacecraft since Apollo 13

the first flight test of Starliner occurred in 2019, it didn’t have people on it and was just trying to get to the ISS
It was almost ready to approach the ISS and then MISSED

the second test, also with nobody on it, went fine a few years later
keep in mind that Boeing wanted people on Starliner in 2018. It’s now 2024 and a crewed flight test is just now about to happen

istg if Boeing kills a bunch of astronauts I think that’ll just be the end of the company
the first company to kill someone in space
let’s hope that doesn’t happen

i'm scared of what's next to come

Alright. Who started a war without my permission? I want answers, preferably names.

When you finish a project you've been working on for weeks and then you're like "uhh ok what do I do now"

I heard that everyone was given mods.
Now i have the hard task of not doing something idiotic like i'd normally would.
