#4I wonder if there is an Enterprise equivalent for UFOs hire.
Towing fees back to Roswell I could imagine would be pricey.

#5Now with 5 leaks, at what point does it make sense to jettison the Starliner and get something else on the pad, something more reliable. Like SpaceX?

Starliner wasn't selected based on merit in the first place so only after people will die will it become impossible to pretend otherwise. What incentive do the current decision makers have to own up to their mistake? They'll double down first, watch.

It would almost be comical at this point if this company weren't directly responsible for human lives.
