This guy is saying that it's a redundant design, and the spacecraft is healthy. I figure they must've burned the other ones a little longer?
>In a post-launch briefing, NASA’s Steve Stich says a couple Starliner thrusters “failed off” during the orbit insertion burn. Also, a sublimator was a “little sluggish” during ascent, but working fine now. Overall, spacecraft is “doing well”.
>Boeing’s Mark Nappi on thruster failures: the system is designed to be redundant and it performed like it’s supposed to. Have a safe vehicle and it’s on its way to the ISS.
