Faulty Boeing StarlinerĀ 

Thruster failures and helium links on Boeing’s new Starliner capsule has prompted NASA and Boeing to keep them in orbit for longer over fears a trip back on the spacecraft could end in disaster. While the capsule docked at the station on June 6, another leak was found and days later on June 10 another was spotted. In addition to the helium leaks, five thrusters temporarily malfunctioned during the flight but four came back online, with the fifth being shut off. Is going to orbit the same as signing your death certificate ?
