The first launch of the Starliner spaceship from Boeing to the ISS ended abnormally

The first launch of the latest American manned spacecraft Starliner, developed by Boeing, ended in an emergency. The spacecraft entered orbit, but cannot start moving toward the ISS due to engine failure. This was reported by the press service of Boeing.

Boeing, on its Twitter page, said that Starliner’s spacecraft, developed by the company, was first launched unmanned to the ISS on Friday. The launch was made from the air base at Cape Canaveral in Florida using the Atlas V booster. The docking with the ISS is scheduled in a day.

Starliner has abnormally launched into orbit, but we control the ship. Management and control team evaluates next maneuver

- said in Boeing



In turn, NASA reported that the spacecraft was launched into space, it is in orbit, but cannot start moving toward the ISS, since "the engine did not turn on, which is necessary for approaching the ISS."

Starliner is in stable orbit, the ship’s batteries are in order, its solar panels are working

- said the head of NASA James Brydenstein.

The MCC in Houston confirmed the abnormal launch of the ship into orbit and reported that communication with the ship was not lost.

Earlier, Boeing said that after the unmanned flight of Starliner to the ISS, a flight with astronauts is planned, which should take place in 2020.

Note that today Roscosmos allocated for American astronauts two places on the Russian Soyuz for a flight to the ISS for 2020-2021.

      Yes, that's interesting, but is it contemplated for them to have such a contingency? What will happen if the crew gets stuck in orbit? The Union has the opportunity to give a brake impulse to the orientation and mooring engines in case of failure of the main remote control.

        They write that the on-board systems have performed a corrective impulse and are calculating further actions:

                      And immediately I remember "the first flight of the Americans to the moon"
                      The script for this show was very interesting. The entire flight was accompanied by reports of emergency situations, which were instantly successfully resolved "on the knee" by the team on Earth, instructing the brave astronauts. For example, how to make a replacement for a failed filter out of socks. And so the whole flight.
                      Those who launched the Starliner ship are worthy apprentices of those showmen.
                      Personally, my opinion is engine problems are simulated so that they can be successfully overcome later, demonstrating American genius.

                        Perhaps you are right, but it seems to me that private traders cannot, and the state (NASA) does not want (otherwise I can’t explain it)!
                        Their engines are ready, both ours and ours. Launcher with infrastructure is wonderful! For 9 years, it would have been possible to create some kind of double bed for such a dough !!! belay belay belay

              I think Boeing has not given up yet. There is a lot that can be done: the valve may have frozen at the start, you should try to deploy the Starliner in the Sun and twist it to heat or shake it when opening and closing the solar panels.
              Well, if the test flight program was not written by rams, then Starliner is in a low extremely unstable orbit and within a week or two it will descend and enter the atmosphere. In any case, the test.
              You can try to shoot the aggregate compartment, you can try to give a brake impulse to the orientation engines ... there are options, in short.
              Boeing guys are strong engineers, this is not a crowd of Mask hipsters, they can handle ...
              PS But, apparently, in the future the cost of the seat to the ISS is still closer to $ 200 million than to 70, as the Holy One broadcast ... lol

      The problem is that the Boeing has already completely snickered. There is no result, constant transfers and schools, but they require more money than Space X. They were given half a billion more under the threat that they would generally quit the program for delivering people to the ISS. And as a result, someone incorrectly set the clock and there is already not enough fuel on the road to the ISS.

      The atlas with solid propellant boosters and the RD-180 and a centaur with two hydrogen engines worked properly and took the ship to its orbit, then the ship itself did not fly further.
      But judging by the latest reports, the very first inclusion of Starliner engines was successful.
      The spacecraft is currently in a safe and stable configuration. Flight controllers have completed a successful initial burn and are assessing next steps.

                        The shuttle had a great bathroom ... It was the shuttle astronauts who adopted the term fecal popcorn. Do you know why? The shuttle's bathroom had a custom of throwing out the contents in a stream, which in zero gravity broke into a fine suspension, squirmed and creaked on the teeth of the brave shuttle astronauts. I had to apply bandages on my face - otherwise it would get a suspension of stuff in my mouth and nose. It was impossible to eat, the faecal popcorn creaked on their teeth .. It got to the point that some crew members refused to eat and went hungry!
                        Feces covered the entire interior upholstery and instruments with thin layers - after all, weightlessness, everything shatters. Then everything dried up - the smell was gorgeous.
                        Evil tongues say that the first Negro got into the crew of the shuttle precisely after such an event - a permanent bathroom cleaner was needed sad

                        Thanks to these repairs, the Hubble has been successfully operating for 29 years, and its descent from orbit is scheduled as early as 20130. As a result, it will operate for 40 years.

                        At the Soyuz spacecraft everything would be much cheaper ...
                        - yeah, that's why Soyuz cannot do most of what the Shuttle could do.

                        This is a fantasy.
                        - this is out of the rage of reality. With the help of the Shuttles, all modules of the American, European and Japanese segments, a Canadian robotic arm, trusses and solar panels, as well as - oh my god - the Russian module Rassvet were launched into orbit.

The point is in design. The crew flies for the sake of a penny and the main thing is to sit on a heptyl barrel with motors. Here the problem is not in a particular valve but in-person, hateful design. Well in the world of chistogan this is normal. Alabama women still give birth to astronauts.

    Graf56 (Vladimir) Today, 16:40
    Only it may very well be that we are laughing for the last time.
    Today, the Boeing Corporation's Starliner CST-100 has successfully launched to the ISS. And this, for a moment, is a seven-seater comfortable ship. Let's see, of course, the docking, anything can happen.
    But in any case, SpaceX Crew Dragon Mask has already successfully docked.
    A few more months, from the strength of the year - and the flights will become manned.
    And then what remains for us? With whom will we sign bonded agreements?
    The fact is that the Mask ships and Boeing companies are new. That's the problem. These are new developments. With tremendous potential.
    What do we have? The Royal Seven? The product is reliable. But it is older, from the last century. And there is nothing new ...

    Oh, they are not good! The man on them hoped that they would "wipe out" the Russian cosmonautics, and they

      There are already problems in breeding. That is, the Boeing (or its contractors) jammed.

      This is the NASA chapter version:
      Because #Starliner believed it was in an orbital insertion burn (or that the burn was complete), the dead bands were reduced and the spacecraft burned more fuel than anticipated to maintain precise control. This precluded @Space_Station rendezvous.

        There were many ideas. There is no integrated SAS "on takeoff, in space and upon landing" and probably will not be with any ship. But at the take-off sites, the proposals were announced.
        Individual ejection seats, a fully salvageable crew cabin, a hatch with a special bar for emergency escape from the ship, this is from memory.
        But, in connection with a sober assessment of the speed of emergency processes of solid fuel accelerators (explosion) and the LOx-LH tank (call), they decided not to introduce anything special. The failure of the remote control in most cases made it possible to make an emergency landing of the entire ship. As a result, only a hatch with a barbell was introduced, which made it possible to leave the ship by parachute under certain conditions, but as the Yankees themselves said, this is more to reassure the public.

No prospects for modernization. The carrier is cruelly (just like that!) Tied to the shuttle, and, unlike the Buran, it cannot be used separately and with another ship.

A smooth flight in orbit - providing the possibility of descent in ANY place, the only condition is landing on land. Or in an instantly reached area, for example, off the coast. When reduced, undocking from a large mass of the ship and descent into the capsule, which is inhibited, due to its low mass, by the parachute system.

    Nice slap on the Boeing. There is nothing to eat off your face if you are applying for the status of one of the most advanced aerospace corporations.

    I hope that they will draw the right conclusions and, along with the Mask, make normal spaceships.

    Only the Shuttle will launch into space more people than the entire USSR. winked

    ... and killed more people than everyone else combined.

    And that's just 135 flights. High-speed meat grinder.

    At the bazaar there are still not such "tricks". Tesla is certainly no longer a curiosity, but the mass sedan segment is the Toyota Corolla and analogues. All the same, $ 40K for an electric toy only makes sense in Cali and NYC, where gasoline is 5 bucks. And even then it is not clear what will happen to its long-term operation and secondary housing.

    This should be observed when operating conditions are equal. They will remove the benefits from the "green" energy of postscripts and deception, they will not charge cars free of charge, subsidized from the budget ....

    Competitors? For a couple? It is not yet known why something from one or the other falls off schedule.

    It’s good that without the astronauts, it would have turned out quite ugly. It was alive to die of starvation in space.

    You are a humanist. So long let them live up there. Air, temperature, dehydration kill faster. More precisely, the lack thereof.

    Buran-Energy was a mistake, unlike the Shuttle system, we spent a huge rocket on launch, which in itself was a significant waste, for me M 19, Tu 2000, Bor were much more promising.

    Buran-Energy was a political move, and adjusted for the possibility of using Energy separately from Buran, which was impossible to do with the amers.
    A sort of rehabilitation after an accident N-1. Made with brilliance. And they proved to them that placing weapons on reusable weapons is available not only to them. That not only they will be able to remove from orbit what is needed. And what caused the closure of many programs using the Shuttle as a military facility. For we, too, are not bast shoes .... And, at the end, ends, (coupled with accidents) forced them to throw trillions of dough into the toilet.

    For spacecraft intended for interplanetary flights, such duplicate rescue systems will be required.

    What are you? Salvation on the way to Mars? Or on the way back?

    Rescue systems are NECESSARY, first of all, on ANY starting ship. Wherever he takes off. And in flight, especially interplanetary .... The only possible way is to send a group of ships, in tight formation and with small crews. To ensure the placement of several crews in one ship, if that. The economy will not allow this for a very long time.

    And how does the test flight of the spacecraft relate to your conclusion? For comparison, the Americans flew on: Apollos, on the Shuttles, and now they will fly on Dragon 2, Orion, perhaps the analogue of Bohr that they are completing now, and ours only flew on the Unions, and Oryol only in 5 years it will fly, and even that can be.

    However, how socialism crippled you. With an enormous amount of non-sales plans and headlines of the Pravda newspaper. Have completely lost the coast. You take promises as results.
    And as long as the result is so far, none of their ships has an effective emergency rescue system, and on this basis they cannot carry people.
    Further. Of course, I could be mistaken, but I think that the existing and unverified rescue system on the Dragon, when the separation from the emergency ship is made by regular engines located directly at the lower stage, will repeat the situation with the accident when the upper stage engines did not turn on normally and set fire to the bottom.
    Our emergency engines are at the top, on a high bar and cannot do this.

      - The SAS "Soviet type" was used by the Americans on the "Mercury" (a few years before the "Soyuz") and "Apollo" - you would know this if you knew even a little about the issue.
