  • NASA Warned of Safety Risks in Delayed Private Crew Launches (Update) 14 November 2019, by Marcia Dunn
    NASA warned of safety risks in delayed private crew launches (Update) 14 November 2019, by Marcia Dunn The auditors reported, meanwhile, that NASA overpaid Boeing $287.2 million to keep the company moving forward. Most of this overcharge was unnecessary, they said, a point with which NASA disagreed. The report shows, on average, a seat on Boeing's Starliner capsule will cost $90 million, almost double the price of a ride on SpaceX's crew Dragon, at $55 million. That's based on a crew of four flying one or two times a year. In case of further delays by Boeing and SpaceX, NASA is seeking to buy extra seats on Russian rockets in 2020 and 2021, another recommendation This undated photo made available by NASA on Friday, of the auditors. NASA has been paying Russia to Aug. 3, 2018 shows, from left, Sunita Williams, Josh ferry astronauts to the space station since the Cassada, Eric Boe, Nicole Mann, Christopher Ferguson, shuttles stopped flying in 2011; the most recent Douglas Hurley, Robert Behnken, Michael Hopkins and price was about $82 million a seat.

On Thursday, one of its capsules Wednesday at Cape Canaveral, Nov. 14, 2019, NASA auditors warned the space agency faces "significant safety and technical challenges" that an apparent success. Last April, the same test need to be solved before astronauts fly in private resulted in the destruction of the capsule.

  • 2008 Spaceport News Summary
    2008 Spaceport News Summary The 2008 Spaceport News used the above banner for the year. Introduction The first issue of the Spaceport News was December 13, 1962. The 1963, 1964 and 1965 Spaceport News were issued weekly. The Spaceport News was issued every two weeks, starting July 7, 1966, until the last issue on February 24, 2014. Spaceport Magazine, a monthly issue, superseded the Spaceport News in April 2014, until the final issue, Jan./Feb. 2020. The two 1962 Spaceport News issues and the issues from 1996 until the final Spaceport Magazine issue, are available for viewing at this website. The Spaceport News issues from 1963 through 1995 are currently not available online. In this Summary, black font is original Spaceport News text, blue font is something I added or someone else/some other source provided, and purple font is a hot link. All links were working at the time I completed this Spaceport News Summary. The Spaceport News writer is acknowledged, if noted in the Spaceport News article. Followup From the 2007 Spaceport News Summary The followng is in the December 14, 2007, issue of the Spaceport News. Page 1 There is an article in the 2007 Spaceport News Summary about External Tank repairs to ET-124, flown on STS-117, after it was damaged by hail.
