Astronauts stranded at ISS "confident" Boeing capsule can get them home safely

NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams expressed confidence in Boeing’s Starliner capsule during a news conference from the International Space Station (ISS), despite being stranded in space for weeks due to helium leaks and thruster failures.
Boeing and NASA are currently troubleshooting the propulsion system at White Sands Missile Range to return the astronauts to the earth safely.

    They are paid test pilots. Have you seen how much they get paid and with the fact that they have to sign pages of risk assumptions and non disclosures. Basically test pilots get paid for their lives.

    They are selling to NASA. Basically the US had to rely on Russia and their Soyuz capsule to send astronauts to the space station. NASA gave two grants one to Boeing and one to SpaceX to develop such crew capsules. SpaceX already delivered on their promise and flew a bunch of missions without issues Boeing on the other hand kept having delays and even had a failure in one of the initial tests. Now this is also a failure because Astronauts couldn't leave on schedule. Boeing is a message right now.
