La capsule d’astronautes de Boeing arrive à la station spatiale après des problèmes de propulseurs
Boeing’s new capsule successfully docked at the International Space Station despite last-minute thruster trouble. This marked the first test flight with astronauts for the Boeing spacecraft, carrying NASA test pilots Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams.
The astronauts embraced the space station residents after docking, with Williams even dancing her way in to music. Despite some minor helium leaks and thruster issues during the flight, Boeing and NASA managers were confident in their ability to manage the propulsion system.
Boeing has plans to keep the Starliner capsule at the space station for at least eight days before guiding it back to a landing in the western U.S. Overall, the successful docking and issues encountered during the flight demonstrate the resilience and adaptability of space technology.
In conclusion, while there were some technical challenges, the successful docking of Boeing’s capsule at the Space Station proves the progress and advancements in space exploration technology. The astronauts’ safe arrival and the ability to manage the technical issues reaffirm the commitment to safe and successful space travel.
