Listen "Here's how Starliner marks a turning point for space exploration, and maybe public perception of Boeing"
Episode Synopsis
Boeing's Starliner spacecraft hit a milestone when it docked at the International Space Station on Thursday morning. The journey to get this spacecraft off the ground in the first place was bumpy, and expensive. It ended up running seven years behind schedule, and went more than $1 billion dollars over budget. But for many, this mission signifies a turning point for the relationship between NASA and commercial spaceflight. And, it may give Boeing the boost it needs to repair the company's public perception. Soundside host Libby Denkmann talked to Greg Autry, the director of the Thunderbird Initiative for Space Leadership, Policy and Business at Arizona State University.
