I’m not worried about him getting upset. What makes you think that?

Correction - The CrewDragon 9 Capsule that brought the 2 astron correction. CrewDargon 9. The mission they came back on, has been up at the ISS since September. They sent that one up with only 2 (instead of 4) astronauts, because that would be their spots to come home. So really they could have...

Who was encroaching on Russian Land?

250k dead, 900k dead/ injured. No I don’t think it was about NATO. If it was he would have attckaed a NaTO country. In fact the Ukraine war caused NATO to expand by admitting Finland and Sweden. So if it was, it backfired.

Yes. I heard that Boeing wanted to bring them back on the Starliner capsule, but they were overruled by NASA. And the capsule came back unnamed with no issues. The plan was made last summer to bring them back on SpaceX. But there were severe delays there as well before the mission was ready...

Unbelievable. Nearly 1 million just on the Russian side. Just because of Putin ego.

When decision was made to shut down the Space Shuttle program, NASA outsourced manned spaced light to the ISS to Boeing and SpaceX. SpaceX got their act together first and has been flying astronauts (Both American and international - including Russians) up to the ISS regularly since 2020. We did...

Both astronauts and cosmonauts routinely have been staying at the space station for longer periods for decades. That is not something new or unusual. Is it embarrassing and should not have happened, yes. Is it t a national failure? Meh. Is it a Boeing failure? Absolutely. They were never in...

Honestly I am not sure. I haven;t seem him around in some time. Hope he's OK.

I deleted a ton of posts from many posters that were totally unrelated to Ukraine. Henry, the owner of the site, made it clear that he does not want politics discussed on his board after he eliminated the "Viewpoint's" forum several years ago. This thread on Ukraine was getting out of hand, so...

Not like Putin wouldn’t do the exact same thing.

This war is 100% all on Putin. To spin it any other way is just drinking Putin's cool aid.

It’s war. U til both sides agree to a cease fire, there is no cease fire. And if one side holds back because they are close to a deal, they are just suckers, because I guarantee Putin is not holding back.

Three different programs here and 2 different companies. So the Astronauts went up on Boeing’s long delayed StarLiner spacecraft for its first crewed test flight. They had issues with the spacecraft while it was docked at the space station. Eventually they decided to fly the StarLiner back to...

Guys - This one is veering off topic. Let's bring it back to Ukraine.

I don’t know if there are any good options. I just feel like Putin is not going to stop until he’s dead or overthrown. Neither likely anytime soon. Even if some kind of deal is made, Putin will just regroup for a couple of years and then try again, maybe someplace else. Maybe that’s better...

I find the entire narrative that Russia & Putin is somehow the good guy and Zelinski is corrupt, ungrateful, dictator just disturbing and revolting.

Did you just compare Zelinski to Hilter?

Diplomacy works by excluding 1 of the 2 countries at war? Interesting

Not sure what these peace talks in Saudi will bring. But not involving Ukraine in the talks seems like a big oversight.
