    Congrats to NASA, ULA, and (yes, even) Boeing on a successful launch. Great to see it finally get off the ground.

      Yup. I wonder if Boeing might be selected to supply the crew capsule for whatever comes after the Artemis programme.

        It’s a Boeing. At this point, why would anyone not expect issues with anything made by Boeing?

            Oh? And it didn’t explode or fall? Cool 👍

            There’s plenty of opportunities for it to fuck up anyways, let’s just hope it doesn’t knock the ISS out of orbit…

                  Usually, I like to shit on Boeing as much as the next guy.

                  But at this point, no. I’d rather Boeing not fuck things up, because there would be lives in danger.

                  Let’s just fucking celebrate that a little bit of advancement towards humanity’s exploration of space has been achieved, yes?

                  Let’s shit on Boeing when the next rocket launch is delayed again.

                  I think you’re being a tad unreasonable. Ever the cynic myself, sometimes things just go according to plan.
