As ever -- we will only get one shot to get a crewed launch. . . right. So, indeed -- we ought to take our time. There is no rush here. No space race left to win. [We won it -- we've had a helicopter flying missions, on Mars, and we've been mining there, for eight years, on and off.] Here's the latest, from NASA's blog:
. . .The teams are now working toward a launch opportunity at 12:25 p.m. ET on Saturday, June 1, with additional opportunities on Sunday, June 2, Wednesday, June 5, and Thursday, June 6.
Work continues to assess Starliner performance and redundancy following the discovery of a small helium leak in the spacecraft’s service module. As part of this work, and unrelated to the current leak which remains stable, teams are in the process of completing a follow-on propulsion system assessment to understand potential helium system impacts on some Starliner return scenarios.
NASA also will conduct a Delta-Agency Flight Test Readiness Review to discuss the work that was performed since the last CFT launch attempt on May 6, and to evaluate issue closure and flight rationale ahead of the next attempt, as part of NASA’s process for assessing readiness. The date of the upcoming Flight Test Readiness Review is under consideration and will be announced once selected. . . .
Now you know -- out into the sunshine, now. . . smile.
