Tuesday afternoon, NASA provided an update on the future of Boeing and the results of a review into the failed Starliner launch in December.The spacecraft didn't reach the International Space Station, after technical problems left them in a wrong orbit. However, as the recommendations are worked on by Boeing and NASA, NASA is optimistic about the future."These lessons learned, are hard lessons learned," Steve Stich, manager of NASA’S Commercial Crew Program said. Up from 61 in March, NASA officials say Boeing now has a total of 80 recommendations that they will have to address.That includes 21 recommendations dealing with the need for greater hardware and software integration testing and 35 that would fall under 'process and operational improvements.'"We've actually staffed up within the program and added a number of personnel to work side by side with Boeing as they implement the recommendations," Stich said.Boeing has said they will redo the test flight to show Starliner not only meets the requirements, but also docks to the space station. They will do it at no cost to the government."Today, wouldn't be able to speculate too much on when we will launch. I would say it would be towards the latter part of this year," Stich said.The setback for Boeing leaves them with promise as NASA remains committed to working with them."Right now I cannot envision a scenario where SpaceX is the only provider. We need both Boeing and SpaceX to be there for us and to support crew transportation," Stich said.
