Has the number of seats changed during development ? Infobox says 7, other places imply 4 or 5. - Rod57 ( talk) 12:55, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
I removed this:
It is not supported by the reference. The second part looks like Original resarch. Can someone find a reference? - Arch dude ( talk) 20:07, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
Note also that NASA does have a contingency, namely Crew Dragon, so the statement will need to be modified even if we do find a reference. - Arch dude ( talk) 20:11, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
@ RickyCourtney: I was not objecting to mention of OIG scrutiny. The problem is that the particular comparison was from a 2019 OIG analysis of CCP as a whole, but the sentence in the lede makes it appear that it was directed specifically at Boeing/Starliner. It is a side issue that has been picked up (probably from Wikipedia) by Joey Foust and other journalists. There are very real and very important problems that have required much more scrutiny. I think they are in the Reuters article that Foust referenced. - Arch dude ( talk) 15:49, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
So, just corious - where does the launch mass come from? do you have a source for it? because we had a somewhat heated discussion about in over in the german wiki, i'd like a source for it, that is reliable, cheers Adtonko ( talk) 16:04, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
However I don't know if we consider it a reliable source, so I won't stick it back in. We do use that citation for that number on the Atlas V page. - Arch dude ( talk) 16:13, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
I moved the image of the mock-up of the capsule out of the "design" section, since we have images of real hardware now. However, we do not have an image that adequately shows the entire spacecraft (capsule+SM). We need an image similar to something like this, but with a proper license. - Arch dude ( talk) 16:20, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
