Starliner was a catastrophe long before Bridenstine was ever involved.

  Absolutely but it never should have been greenlit, allowed to simply skip tests (in flight abort) after essentially failing the pad abort test where only 2 out of 3 parachutes deployed + propellant leak in beyond optimal conditions, and so on. That craft was not even remotely fit for humans and there was far too high a chance that their 'test pilots' lost their lives in something that never should have been allowed to have a human in it to start with. And that all happened under Bridenstine.

      > spaceX? It's already practically a monopoly. it is like saying that Michael Phelps had a monopoly in Olympic Golden medals.
