SpaceX vs Boeing
Published 2 years ago
Description
The first manned spaceflight of Boeing’s Starliner capsule was scrubbed due to a defective valve. But looking at it on the pad, it’s hard to avoid getting a distinctly 20th Century vibe. The SpaceX Dragon capsule, meanwhile, looks like it’s from the future. So the question isn’t whether or not the Strainer will succeed; the question is whether or not it DESERVES to succeed.
