Particularly embarrassing considering the incredible progress SpaceX is making, including today’s launch and successful splashdown of both starship and the booster. The entry was wild, too - one of the fins burned halfway off, but the damn thing still worked fine lol

Maybe they'll put a Starliner in the cargo bay of the next Starship launch.

Lmao that would be goddamn priceless. Even if it was just an external mockup with ballast to simulate full mission mass of the capsule… Jesus, that would be an absolutely hilarious amount of shade for them to throw.
