And at the other end of Boeing, they're having extreme difficulty getting Starliner launched again (part 2: human boogaloo, endless problems, even while years behind SpaceX). It's like they're being sabotaged, only it's probably just mismanagement, incompetence, and demoralization.
You heard about the mission scrub weekend I take it. Absolute insanity how the company that went to the moon can't put two people into LEO.
I happened to catch NASA on YouTube for a few hours that morning. There were a few problems, but they got through it. At about T-10 min, everyone seemed to feel this was the one, clear to launch. Even a few speeches ('MURICA!). I left for a minute and came back to the crew access arm being extended... It was difficult to watch them have to painstakingly evacuate the crew again instead of sending it to space.

Well you got to give them credit for not giving up I guess.
