Starliner launch in jeopardy as Boeing discovers critical issues.

Boeing has delayed the launch of its Starliner spacecraft due to two serious issues discovered just weeks before the scheduled launch. The first issue involves "soft links" in the lines that run from Starliner to its parachutes, and the second issue involves flammable tape wrapped around wiring harnesses throughout the vehicle. It is unclear when the "Crew Flight Test" will occur, and concerns have been raised about the safety culture at Boeing. NASA's Aerospace Safety Advisory Panel has urged NASA to bring in independent experts to assess the viability of Starliner.
