NASA Just Set A Date For Starliner’s Undocking
Even with the decision already made and the crew no longer returning on Starliner, teams are still busy testing the spacecraft in preparation for an upcoming undocking. One major hurdle is the fact that the main thruster complications have been going on within the spacecraft’s service module. This will be jettisoned and burn up upon reentry meaning the next week is some of the last time available to test and gather data.
There also are concerns as to whether or not the vehicle will survive reentry which, no matter how small, is the reason it will be uncrewed. Here I will go more in-depth into the return date and time, final spacecraft testing, reentry concerns, and more.
