Public pressure once again forced Nasa to make a vital decision: canceling this dangerous mission.
Find out everything in today's episode of Techmap.

The current tension mainly comes from two major hardware issues that Starliner has been facing, including five separate helium leaks and the failure of five out of 28 reaction control system thrusters.
Currently, engineers from Nasa and Boeing have still been studying two problems, and on Saturday when the vehicle went through the thruster firing test, they had an opportunity to look at both.
Talking about the fifth leak after docking, they said:
""it's a very small leak that we saw uh after docking so that's the fifth leak it's the smallest of all um that we've seen and very similar to what we saw on OF2"".
