NASA hides the truth!? Why? 4:23

Starliner Astronaut finally Exposed Boeing Starliner Issue WORSE than NASA Said...
Can you spot the difference?
“So far, we don’t see any scenario where Star liner is not going to be able to bring Butch and Suni home.” That’s what NASA’s Steve Stich told the public—just before quietly handing the return mission over to SpaceX.
Now compare that to what astronaut Sunita Williams described about the harrowing moment when Boeing‘s Star liner almost doomed her and her companion, Butch Wilmore.
“This is a very precarious situation we’re in.”
They are two wildly different tones. One from those who greenlit the launch, and the other from the people inside the spacecraft.
What really happened during Starliner’s crewed test flight? We know the thrusters failed—all the way to zero fault tolerance. But here’s the real question:
Why did NASA downplay the danger?

Why did they wrap a near-catastrophe in careful wording and quiet optimism?
It’s not just about what went wrong. It’s about why the truth was softened—and what that tells us about NASA’s priorities now.
Let’s break it all down in today’s episode of Techmap.
The keyword 6DOF recently made headlines following an Ars Technica article featuring NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who recounted their desperate journey to the ISS aboard Boeing's Star liner last summer.

So, why do I describe it as "desperate"? Okay, for those who haven't read the article yet, 6DOF, or Six Degrees of Freedom, refers to the ability of a spacecraft to maneuver in three-dimensional space across six independent axes:
Translational Axes: Forward/Backward; Left/Right, and Up/Down.
Rotational Axes: Yaw, Pitch, and Roll.
Star liner uses thrusters housed in four "doghouses" (clusters of thrusters) to control its movement across these six degrees of freedom. Each thruster contributes to specific maneuvers, enabling precise adjustments for docking, reentry, and other operations.
