NASA has announced a new date for the first launch of the Starliner Boeing to the ISS

The first unmanned trial launch of the latest American Starliner Boeing to the ISS using the Atlas V launch vehicle was postponed for one day and transferred to December 20. This was reported by the operator company United Launch Alliance (ULA).

Launch of the Atlas V booster rocket with Boeing Starliner Corporation ship, which will make a test flight, is now scheduled to be carried out on December 20

- said in a statement.



The company explained that the postponement of the launch date is related to the postponement of the dress rehearsal, which was held on Friday, December 6, and not the 5 number as planned in advance. The transfer is associated with bad weather.

According to information posted on the NASA website, the launch of the first unmanned Starliner mission is scheduled for 06: 36 on the East Coast of the United States (14: 36 Moscow time) on December 20 from the 41 launch complex at the Cosmodrome at Cape Canaveral in Florida.

The transfer of the launch of the Starliner to December 20 is already the second. Initially, the launch was planned for December 17, but was postponed to December 19 due to a problem in the purge air supply line found in the Atlas V rocket.

As previously reported, the first manned launches of the Starliner and Crew Dragon ships with American astronauts on board are scheduled for the first half of the 2020 of the year. After this, the United States plans to abandon flights on the Russian "Unions", but will not refuse to cooperate.

        Look at the heading of the article "NASA has named a new date for the first launch of the Boeing Starliner to the ISS." The rate of comments on the site has been dropping at an alarming rate, especially over the past couple of years. More and more people consciously avoid situations where they need to think, and any serious conversation is turned into jokes. If something is not funny, then it does not deserve attention.

              There was no moon landing. And there were no real flights on "Gemeni" either, it's all cinematography. Look at this "Dzhemeni", close up and you will understand everything yourself. This is a dummy, moreover, primitive and crude ... the sash outward on the piano hinges ...
              The Soviet Union recognized their props for the fact of manned flights solely for political and economic reasons. Look at their "moon suit" and give yourself an answer ... can a regular zipper (on the back) provide ... GEOMETIZATION ?!

              Brown then managed to create only "Saturn-1B" ... well, and a dummy Saturn-5.

              Before the Shuttle, they did not fly into space. They had no means of life support for the ship, no spacesuits, no rocket, no lunar module ... But they had satellites and Mariners. They tried to fool them, broadcasting a picture through the "Mariner" from the moon.

              I learned about the Lunar scam from a colonel from Baikonur back in 1985.

                  More than . For 3 years I took part in ensuring the landing of almost all Soviet vehicles, from manned to military and research, including the only flight of "Buran" (1988 - 1991). Just look for yourself, google for example "Americans' spacesuit on the moon", look at this miracle of technology ... I was just shocked when I saw instead of a sealed bow belt (like the Americans on the "Shuttle") or a hatch door, like ours, ... the usual zipper on the back - like on a bag or a sports jacket ... And I saw it for the first time in a series of photos in the weekly intelligence bulletin "Rocket and Space Technology" in a filing for ... it seems 1970. This is DSP - literature and I studied all publications from 1966 (or 68) to 1988 inclusive. Now all this is in the public domain (not bulletins, but those materials about the US lunar program) on the Internet, where I met those very photographs and even much more, including video materials.
                  Just type in the search engine "Lunar scam", under this name there is a very serious material with all the evidence base. In our country, everyone involved in cosmonautics of that time knew about this, but there was an order to keep quiet. In those materials you will learn about how and at what cost the dummy Apollo 13 descent vehicle was captured in the North Atlantic, you will see a photograph of its transfer to the Americans in Arkhangelsk, you will see photographs of the American "space" ships "Mercury", Dzhemeni "and, of course," Apollo "and the Eagle descent module, you will see and be able to check and recalculate all the data on the actual flight parameters of Saturn-5 ... There are also a lot of videos, films, investigations - both the Americans themselves and our compatriots ... the real reason and cost of the lie of cosmonaut Leonov ... and possibly the real reason for the death of Yuri Gagarin.
                  I had a chance to closely communicate with the participants of our lunar program - with the people involved in the lander, from the Yuzhnoye design bureau ... with what nostalgia they recalled those times ... about those programs ... about trips to the Star City to the guys who had to pilot their products ...
                  But the first time I heard about the lunar scam in 1985, in the spring, was from the colonel’s son, who served the entire service in Baikonur, and then from his father ... but under an obligation not to disclose. It was painful that I was interested in this topic in my youth, in high school I was a fan of the American lunar program in general ... Neil Armstrong's photograph (color) in a spacesuit on the moon hung over my bed ... he dreamed of becoming an astronaut ... getting ready ... wrote essays on the creation of the lunar base ...
                  ... And then I found out the TRUTH ..
                  At first there was a shock and it was not believed that the lie could be so grandiose, cynical and covered at such a level ... Then there were files of our intelligence bulletins with analytical squeezes about everything that happened during the week in the field of rocket science (primarily military) and astronautics ... well, and then more.

                  By the way, Nixon was dismissed from the presidency precisely for the failure of the Lunar scam, for the shame that had to be flooded with money, concessions and gifts to the Soviet leaders ( Vietnam, acceptance on the balance sheet and maintenance of Egypt, which tore us apart with its war with Israel ... annual gifts to Brezhnev of new products from the American luxury car industry (he knew one driver from the Kremlin garage)) ... The USA began to buy our oil and opened correspondent accounts for our elite in their banks ... And they got even with us for all this in 1991, when the fed children of the "elite" sold OUR country to the USA ...
                  The world is multidimensional and diverse, it is much more complicated (by many orders of magnitude) than it seems at first - an inexperienced look.
                  If you really want to know the truth about the Lunar Scam, you can do this without leaving your computer. But you need to take this issue seriously. And without knowledge of the history of that moment, much will seem incomprehensible (motives, methods, reaction to consequences).

            “Brown has passed from Gemeni to the Moon in 7 years, but here in 10 years - they cannot make a barrel of LSS.
            P"
            - In those years there was a space race, so the time factor played a big role. Developments were accelerated, much more money was allocated for them than now. Moreover, in those days, the requirements of NASA (and the Soviet aerospace agency) for the safety of the devices were not so strict - they risked a lot, but this made it possible to get ahead of the opponent.

            Today there is no such race and competition, neither the Americans nor we need to hurry much. The rivalry is, of course, but far from the same as during the Cold War.

          But the situation is more than serious.
          And the question is already in full swing: what will we do if next year the flights to the Starliner and Dragon ISS become manned and scheduled?
          Until now, we could not pay attention to the fact that many countries have long passed us in space in literally all directions, because there was only one trump card - the role of the cosmic cab driver. Like, only we carry astronauts to the ISS.
          And if this trump card is knocked out of hands?

            And so for any reason ... All-weepers are dying, not caressed by their own or others' victories ...
            The start and normal operation of Starliner / Dragon-2 will not affect the work of Roscosmos in any way. Since the need for the Unions was determined solely by the needs of the USA + Russia, and the scientific program on the ISS does not change in any way if the Americans get there on their ships.

                And the ISS is breathing. And there is no way to do another, If you don’t know, Starliner and Dragon must make 4 working flights each. 8 flights for the next 8 years of the possible functioning of the ISS. As if the ISS is the Moon of 1968.

              Of course they know, but they try to do everything so that they forget about him. Kinsey's studies caused a great negative of some sections of society. Many right-wing Christians felt that their religious views were at odds with Kinsky's methods. They considered those who supported Kinsky to be licentious and depraved, and his work morally degrading. Many consider him a racist and anti-Semite. Even the Rockefellers, who sponsored his work, stopped funding. Even today, the name Kinsky is embittered among many sections of society, we all know these layers.

          As if we also have studies and demonstrators. However:
          Roskosmos cannot lead the development of promising engines for reusable rockets, since it sent all the free money to pay off the debts of the Khrunichev Center, said the head of Roskosmos Dmitry Rogozin.

          The head of Roscosmos explained that "the methane engine will enable us to reuse launch vehicles". "Such Development is in KB Chemicals. It really can be done in a couple of years, but for this we need funds that are not yet available: they are all nested in the program for the financial rehabilitation of the Khrunichev Center, "Rogozin said.

And all these stands, and oath promises to pass tests next year and transfer the batch of products by the end of 20 years already to the rocket.

              In China, everything is difficult with the submission of information, but CASIC is announcing the rocket by the year 22 (I think that by the year 23 it might start something).

                  Rogozin told RIA - all the money went to Khrunichev. Therefore, we are not doing it now.

                  I wrote this as a whole, in general, plus Rogozin. What can he do? Not to save Khrunichev? So he will be kicked out and will be saved by another. Well, there are no options. To take more money is not allowed. Proactively stimulate? So well-fed years are behind, enterprises now do not have their own resources for serious developments, even under guarantees. Just go into debt -> Khrunichev 2.0 will be.

                  That is, a situation where there is an unambiguously promising topic - which is slowed down, because resources go to save not very efficient enterprises. Which in the future will lead to even greater lag and non-competitiveness. An even greater tightening of foreign currency launches - and even greater problems with enterprises.

                    The word "does", in a context similar to the one in your post, is used when there is already a working sample (s).
                    And when there is nothing else, it designs, constructs, makes a prototype, etc.

                    But you had a clear attempt to present the case, so there are already methane launch vehicles.
                    That is why you are in the initial post and did not indicate the names of the missiles, but only the designed engines.
                    Then, even in response to my correct remark, they called only Volcano and New Glenn, which naturally do not exist - they are only being designed.
                    But even there they did not name the project of the methane rocket from Mask.
                    And with the Chinese, it turned out funny in general - instead of indicating the methane project of the launch vehicle, the Chinese simply called the family of ALL and ANY of their state missiles - "long March",
                    but the methane launch vehicle project is not part of this family !!!

                Rogozin will first build a skyscraper in the form of a rocket in Fili on the site of the plant. Then he will ask for money for a new plant. Then it will decide where to build. Then look for the stolen construction money. Then they will give more money and finally build it. Then he will build a rocket. Then they will say that this missile is bad, and it is not necessary to build it, it is necessary to develop a new one. Then, when a new one is ready, it turns out that the control units are American and because of sanctions are not supplied, another rocket must be made again under the Chinese units, etc. This crazy chain can be continued indefinitely, and with each step of this endless path several new people will appear on the Forbes list.

                  What kind of Angara rocket? Angara missiles are assemblies of universal missile modules. The cost of assembling the URM was not announced, the launch price of the first prototype A5, launched from Plesetsk in 2014, was announced - about $ 100 million, in addition, the cost of the first two A1.2s was announced as about 2 billion rubles. But it was also stated that the cost of assembling new URMs was reduced by 30%, which suggests that the A5 rocket is already practically comparable in terms of the cost of launch services with the Proton-M rocket for foreign customers.

                          you are wrong in assessing who spent what. The Angara missile complex is a federal project funded by the Ministry of Defense and intended to replace the Proton-M rocket; it does not require a quick payback, as in private companies. In the case of the commercial sale of services for the launch of this rocket, the profit received is an off-budget source of funding and is an addition to the MO budget. The rocket manufacturer already has a stable state order for federal launches.

                          I'm not talking about the amount, although you made a mistake in it, I'm talking about estimating the cost of launch services, this is what you are interested in in the cost of services for the withdrawal of astronauts on new American ships - since the ships are private, they must pay off otherwise a private company will go bankrupt ... The number of launches of these ships is limited, since they were created only for the ISS, hence the price of the cost of space for them for the manufacturer. By lowering the cost of "commercial" sites, they will have to raise the cost for NASA astronauts. Which NASA really doesn't like. laughing

                          As part of a commercial contract. "Soyuz MS", for example, are being built in our country within the framework of a state contract under the federal space program.

                          In addition, earlier private companies planned to launch seven people each, but in the same Dragon, a change in the seat angle, at the request of NASA, made it necessary to reduce the crew to four, respectively, which affected the cost of the seat.

                error again

                For Boeing, taking into account the contract $ 4,2 billion plus additional financing for the project another $ 877 million, with a crew of 4 people and 4-6 contracted launches - the price per seat is not $ 90 million, but $ 179-268 million.

                For SpaceX, the cost of space for NASA is $ 130 to $ 196 million.

                https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/11/nasa-report-finds-boeing-seat-prices-are-60-higher-than-spacex/

                I read the link, I didn’t understand why you think that the cost for a seat is from 170-270, it says that NASA gave extra money to the ship itself, but the price for a seat will cost 90 lyam, or didn’t I understand something?

          The analogue of Bor - by the way, lives well. As friends with Lockheed, immediately the money flowed and work intensified. Well, they are in the CRS-2 program (the second stage of the ISS supply) - they most likely will solve the Cygnus (because Orbital is dead and the launch vehicle is also full, or rather it is still alive but the most expensive).


          By the way, they still dream of making it manned. At the same time they want to make or WOW for tourists - a projection system a la glass walls. Or pseudo-illuminators - well, in the sense of electronic. If NASA allows them, there will be the first deaf manned spacecraft that relies entirely on cameras.

                I will add. The fact is that the Soyuz was originally planned as a spacecraft for flights to the Moon, so it is a "two-room" one and everyday conveniences were included in it based on a multi-day flight of two people without spacesuits. So this can be said to be a positive vestige of the past in its design. The appearance after the Soyuz-11 accident among the cosmonauts of flight suits, as well as the creation of a transport version with three cosmonauts to the orbital station, somewhat reduced the volume of his living area per person to almost Spartan conditions ... but on the whole, the slogan is fully justified there - "in cramped, but not offended. " Today the flight to the station reaches six hours, and they are going to shorten it still.

      State Corporation Roscosmos announced on Saturday on Facebook about the invention of a combined engine suitable for use in the atmosphere and in airless space. Scientists from the Keldysh Center Denis Slesarev and Vadim Tararyshkin received a patent for this invention.

      According to Roskosmos, the new engine will accelerate the aircraft to hypersonic speed.https: //yandex.ru/patents/doc/RU2693951C1_20190708 With our "partners" it is necessary to patent the possibility of patenting. Otherwise, it turns out that they invented and patented and sold it three times.
