Boeing and NASA are moving forward with a June 1 launch attempt of the first crewed Starliner mission despite a "stable" leak in its propulsion system.
Assuming for a minute that this is 100% true, for conversation’s sake.
Does that matter? We have here a company with a reputation that is massively hurt by issues in their aircraft and inability to keep a decent quality control, and they think the best way forward is to announce the whole world they’re flying a space mission with a leaky spacecraft? Are they actively trying to tank their reputation even further?
