The reports while it was happening suggested that they were almost down to no redundancies for the thrusters. Which would have been bad enough to disallow the capsule to approach the ISS. They managed to get enough thrusters working to still dock, but it seems that this was rather close. So even though it worked in the end, I would assume that this is still a quite serious incident and will require some examination. Also it seems that these problems are not well understood, which is not the kind of problem you want to have on manned spacecraft: > Some notes from the post-docking news conference on Starliner: Engineers found a fourth helium leak after capture. The thruster issues were similar to those observed on OFT-2, and are still not fully understood. https://x.com/SciGuySpace/status/1798827111454827003 https://x.com/SciGuySpace/status/1798827111454827003
