SpaceX Vs. Boeing
The first manned spaceflight of Boeing’s Starliner capsule last week was scrubbed due to a defective valve. But Bill Whittle says that looking at it on the launching pad, it’s hard to avoid getting a distinctly 20th-century vibe.
The SpaceX Dragon capsule, meanwhile, looks like it’s from the future. So the question isn’t whether or not the Strainer will succeed, the question is whether or not it deserves to succeed. “Right Angle” colleagues Scott Ott and Stephen Green join Whittle to debate the issue.
