More Helium Leaks Were Just Found On Boeing’s Crewed Starliner

What was originally found soon after the first scrubbed launch attempt back in May and determined to be a manageable helium leak, has since turned into a bigger problem in space. Specifically, after the first launch scrub, officials discovered a leak in one of Starliner’s RCS thrusters. While not ideal, they decided that it was manageable, and that it could be left as is even during the launch. Unfortunately, not long after this morning’s successful launch with two crew members aboard, the problem has gotten worse, with even more helium leaks being found. This comes as the crew prepares to try and dock to the International Space Station in the morning. Here I will go more in-depth into the new leaks, their significance, what this means for the rest of the mission, and more.
