Space X: Wanna fly Starship
Space X：想飛星艦嗎
@devoof spacex and Boeing both started working on their capsules at the same time and Boeing got way more money from the government to do it than SpaceX did, yet SpaceX beat them to it and has been transporting astronauts flawlessly for years now, and Boeing still can't "get it up" lol
SpaceX 和波音同時開始研制他們的太空艙，波音從政府那里得到了比 SpaceX 多得多的錢，但 SpaceX 還是搶先一步，并且這些年來完美地運(yùn)送了宇航員，而波音至今仍無法“起飛”，哈哈。
@teslasnek Starship??
星艦？
wanting to go to space is a lot different than not wanting to die in space.
想去太空和不想死在太空是很不一樣的。
Unfortunately, the astronauts don't have a choice.
不幸的是，宇航員們沒有選擇的余地。

Not exactly - but one can deduce that leaks and problems never go away once you depart the ground or atmosphere.
不完全是——但可以推斷，一旦離開地面或大氣層，泄漏和問題就不會消失。
Yup.. after trial and leak that appeared, I was wondering if they had resolved the problem. Seeing all problem Boeing have with its commercial airplane, I was wondering if the airspace division would be impacted as well.. but I felt that this would be bad.. after 3 leaks during the flight... now 5 leaks...

If I were a Boeing engineer for the last ten years and I was looking for a new job, I think I would instead tell the new employer I was in jail for those ten years. I would be more likely to get hired.
如果我是波音公司過去十年的工程師，而我在找新工作，我想我會告訴新雇主我這十年在坐牢。我可能更容易被雇用。
It's not the Engineer's fault. It's the management focus on profits at the expense of sound engineering.
這不是工程師的錯。是管理層為了利潤而犧牲了可靠的工程。
@billweberx That's not quite right. The Engineers allowed the pressure for profits to influence their technical demands in building their products. Their products being aeroplanes and rocket ships.
那不完全對。工程師們允許利潤壓力影響他們在制造產(chǎn)品時的技術(shù)要求。他們的產(chǎn)品是飛機(jī)和火箭。
@davidtuer
5825 Yes, but you forget that in cases like this if you go against the will of management you will simple be told to get on with the program or get replaced, because there is others that want the job, and unsurprising keeping their livelihood is of a greater importance to most than caring about the results, specially because in general our kind sucks at long term planning.
是的，但你忘了在這種情況下，如果你違背管理層的意愿，你會被簡單地告知繼續(xù)項目或被替換，因為有其他人想要這份工作，不出所料，對于大多數(shù)人來說，保持生計比關(guān)心結(jié)果更重要，特別是因為總體上我們這個種類在長期規(guī)劃方面很糟糕。
As an engineer that worked in the industry for 43 years including for Boeing at one point I can safely say that it is the constraints put on the engineers by management that is the problem, Boeing is not like most aerospace companies, I didn't enjoy my time with Boeing as it always felt like our opinions didn't matter, management was the problem because you have people that are in no way engineers telling engineers how they have to do things and it's either their way or the highway. The difference in how it feels to work at Boeing vs Lockheed Martin is like night and day and the end product shows that difference, Boeing deserves to go under.
作為在這個行業(yè)工作了43年的工程師，包括在波音工作過一段時間，我可以肯定地說，問題在于管理層對工程師的限制。波音不像大多數(shù)航空航天公司，我不喜歡在波音的工作，因為總覺得我們的意見無關(guān)緊要，問題在于管理層，因為有完全不是工程師的人在告訴工程師們該怎么做，要么照做要么走人。在波音工作和在洛克希德·馬丁工作感覺的差別就像白天和黑夜，最終產(chǎn)品也顯示了這種差異，波音應(yīng)該倒閉。

Not according to people who worked at Boeing. Management (non engineers) forced engineering decisions and led to all the safety issues. Several whistle blowers have spoken out about this.
據(jù)曾在波音工作的人說，管理層（非工程師）強(qiáng)迫做出工程決策，導(dǎo)致了所有的安全問題。有幾位舉報者對此進(jìn)行了揭露。
This is not a binary question with a yes or no answer. There is no one person or group of people that can be blamed. Management for pressurising the production process, Engineers for allowing that pressure to influence their technical decisions, workers who are careless - how can someone who has taken a panel out by unscrewing 5 bolts forget to re-screw them when refitting the panel?? Management must bear the brunt of the blame as they set the tone for the working environment, but that in no way excuses those downstream for lackadaisical and unprofessional work performance.
這不是一個可以用“是”或“否”回答的二元問題。沒有一個人或一群人可以被指責(zé)。管理層因為給生產(chǎn)過程施壓，工程師因為讓這種壓力影響他們的技術(shù)決策，工人因為粗心——怎么會有人在拆下5個螺栓后忘記重新裝上呢？管理層必須承擔(dān)主要責(zé)任，因為他們設(shè)定了工作環(huán)境的基調(diào)，但這絕不能為下游人員的懶散和不專業(yè)的工作表現(xiàn)開脫。
Completely wrong. Management decides what goes on at Boeing, not engineers. It's been reported repeatedly that management forced engineering to schedules that were impossible, leading to poor quality. Engineers complained to management about many safety issues but it fell on deaf ears. The only choice engineers have is to follow orders or quit, which many did. Not everyone is in the position that they can quit their jobs and keep their finances above water, so they hang on. All the best engineers left Boeing long ago.
完全錯誤。波音的事情是管理層決定的，不是工程師。據(jù)多次報道，管理層強(qiáng)迫工程師執(zhí)行不可能的時間表，導(dǎo)致質(zhì)量下降。工程師向管理層抱怨很多安全問題，但沒人理會。工程師唯一的選擇是服從命令或辭職，許多人選擇了辭職。并不是每個人都能辭職并維持經(jīng)濟(jì)狀況，所以他們只能堅持。所有最好的工程師早就離開波音了。
Completely wrong?? You may disagree with me but your opinion remains just that, an opinion. Find some humility and some manners.
完全錯誤？你可以不同意我的看法，但你的意見也只是意見而已。找點(diǎn)謙虛和禮貌吧。
That was my opinion and I didn't say or do anything that should offend you.

So the engineers decided to go with Money over Morals and willingly let loose products that were unsafe. I'm sure they are proud of their work...
所以工程師決定選擇金錢而不是道德，愿意放任不安全的產(chǎn)品。我相信他們對自己的工作很自豪...
The moral responsibility of the Engineers is to report safety issue to management. They did that. Management chose to go down the immoral path of ignoring the Engineers. The Engineers have no authority to work on projects not approved by management. What are they supposed to do? Quit their jobs? Easy for you to say. Nothing like blaming the workers for management poor judgement. I'm guessing you're a manager at Boeing. You sure talk like you are.
工程師的道德責(zé)任是向管理層報告安全問題。他們做了。管理層選擇了無視工程師的不道德路線。工程師無權(quán)處理未經(jīng)管理層批準(zhǔn)的項目。他們該怎么辦？辭職嗎？說得倒輕巧。把管理層的糟糕判斷歸咎于工人，真是荒謬。我猜你是波音的經(jīng)理。你說話的口氣就是這樣。
Nope just an engineer. With other engineers in family, 2 of which quit boeing seattle many years ago because they didn't want the weight of knowing they made poor decisions and lowered their work ethic enough to endanger peoples lives. They moved on and are much better for it. So yes, it is easy for me to say. If you choose to accept the managements poor decisions and continue knowing its wrong, you're just as bad as them and share in the blame.
不，只是一個工程師。家里還有其他工程師，其中兩人多年前辭去了波音西雅圖的工作，因為他們不想背負(fù)做出錯誤決策并降低工作道德到危及人們生命的重?fù)?dān)。他們離開了，現(xiàn)在過得好多了。所以，是的，對我來說很容易說。如果你選擇接受管理層的糟糕決策并繼續(xù)明知其錯誤的情況下工作，你和他們一樣糟糕，也要分擔(dān)責(zé)任。

SpaceX和波音同時開始研制他們的太空艙，而波音從政府那里獲得的資金比SpaceX多得多，然而SpaceX先一步成功并多年來完美地運(yùn)輸宇航員，而波音仍然“搞不定”哈哈。
And I think it's time for NASA and Boeing admit that Boeing hasn't delivered and hand the money back.
我認(rèn)為是時候讓NASA和波音承認(rèn)波音沒有交付成果并退還資金了。
The craziest part is the difference in government budgets provided. Boeing received considerable more funding for development and it took them twice as long as SpaceX to make. They bill the US taxpayers 90 million per launch, while SpaceX 55 million. If our government were run like a business, trying to save money for the best product, SpaceX would have all contract and Boeing would have been cutoff and given the middle finger. There are just way too many politicians with their hands in the Boeing cookie jar, hence why they literally get away with corporate assassinations.
最瘋狂的部分是政府提供的預(yù)算差異。波音獲得了更多的研發(fā)資金，但耗時是SpaceX的兩倍。他們每次發(fā)射向美國納稅人收取9000萬美元，而SpaceX則是5500萬美元。如果我們的政府像企業(yè)一樣運(yùn)營，試圖節(jié)省最好的產(chǎn)品的錢，那么SpaceX將獲得所有合同，而波音將被切斷并被豎中指。有太多政客插手波音的蛋糕，這就是他們能夠逍遙法外的原因。

嘿，波音CEO去年賺了3200萬美元。一位國會議員問他他的工作是什么，那位波音的人無法回答。
Since SpaceX was ignored and not thought of as a spacecraft provider at first in the eyes of NASA, Boeing had a head start on top of the extra money. And still, all Boeing did was rebuild the 1960s Apollo capsule and couldn't get it right the first time. Do you remember the wiring had to be redone because the wrong electrical tape was used? Did a group of high school students design and spec. out Starliner?
由于SpaceX最初被NASA忽視，并未被認(rèn)為是航天器提供商，波音在額外資金的基礎(chǔ)上占得先機(jī)。而且，波音所做的一切只是重建了1960年代的阿波羅登月艙，但第一次就沒搞對。你還記得因為使用了錯誤的電工膠帶，布線必須重新做嗎？是某個高中生團(tuán)隊設(shè)計和制定了星際客機(jī)的規(guī)格嗎？

Even though Boeing got more money, the money given was lined into the pockets of executives and kickbacks back to the government workers who granted the grants. SpaceX got little or nothing and consistently face the moving of the goal post that even Boeing didn't even overcome. SpaceX conquered all the requirements of NASA beyond expectation. So seeing SpaceX the underdog succeed where Boeing with its 50's business mentality about keeping share prices high over safety and R&D. Anyway it is what it is. Glad we have the internet that can point out the back room deals, If this was the pre-internet era 99% of Boeings shortfalls would have been swept under the carpet. Governments sweep so much under the carpet - watch the video regarding US wiping out half of IRAN navy over 8 hours.
盡管波音得到了更多的錢，但這些錢進(jìn)了高管的口袋和給了授予撥款的政府工作人員回扣。SpaceX幾乎沒得到什么，并且不斷面對目標(biāo)變動的問題，而波音甚至都沒有克服這些問題。SpaceX超出預(yù)期地征服了NASA的所有要求。因此，看到SpaceX這個弱者在波音以保持股價高于安全和研發(fā)的50年代商業(yè)心態(tài)下取得成功。無論如何，事實(shí)就是如此。很高興我們有互聯(lián)網(wǎng)，可以指出背后的交易。如果這是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)時代之前，99%的波音缺點(diǎn)都會被掩蓋。政府掩蓋了太多東西——看一段關(guān)于美國在8小時內(nèi)消滅一半伊朗海軍的視頻。

Keep in mind SpaceX received BILLIONS to develop Cargo Dragon well over a decade ago. They had 6 years of flight heritage on things like RCS thrusters, power systems, pressurization systems, heat shields, parachutes, etc that they could fit directly into Crew Dragon. When they did have to develop new hardware for the manned ship, they had parachute issues and an unexpected capsule EXPLOSION on the ground. If you combine the money from Cargo and Crew Dragon, SpaceX got MORE money than Boeing. And Boeing was starting from scratch after not having built a crewed vehicle since the Space Shuttle in the 1970s. So all that institutional memory left with retired engineers. All in all, people are just pissed off at Boeing because of the troubles with their commercial aircraft division, which is essentially a different company. I don't hear people griping about the F-15 EX fighter. That is also built by Boeing, as is the F-18 Super Hornet.
請記住，十多年前SpaceX獲得了數(shù)十億美元來開發(fā)貨運(yùn)龍飛船。他們在RCS推進(jìn)器、電力系統(tǒng)、加壓系統(tǒng)、隔熱罩、降落傘等方面有6年的飛行經(jīng)驗，可以直接裝入載人龍飛船。當(dāng)他們必須為載人飛船開發(fā)新硬件時，他們遇到了降落傘問題和意外的地面艙爆炸。如果你把貨運(yùn)和載人龍飛船的錢合并起來，SpaceX獲得的錢比波音多。而且波音在自從1970年代建造航天飛機(jī)以來就沒有建造過載人飛行器，所以所有的技術(shù)記憶都隨著退休的工程師消失了?？偟膩碚f，人們對波音感到不滿是因為其商用飛機(jī)部門的問題，這本質(zhì)上是一個不同的公司。我沒有聽到有人抱怨F-15EX戰(zhàn)斗機(jī)。這也是波音制造的，還有F-18超級大黃蜂。

選擇氦氣似乎很愚蠢。雖然氮?dú)飧?，但更容易獲得，可能不太容易泄漏。

60% of the time it works every time.
它有60%的時間是每次都能工作。
As safety oriented NASA is I was surprised at how they downplayed the leaks and launched anyway. I'm wondering if some of the NASA decision makers are going to be in HIGH paying jobs at Boeing in the near future.
以安全為導(dǎo)向的 NASA 居然輕描淡寫地對待泄漏問題并繼續(xù)發(fā)射，這讓我感到驚訝。我想知道 NASA 的一些決策者是否將在不久的將來在波音獲得高薪工作。

@AKguru762 You beat me to it
@AKguru762 你搶在我前面說了。
Maybe, but they shouldn't be buying $2 valves from China for their spacecraft. They should at least be ordering the $200 ones.
也許是的，但是他們不該購買中國2美元的閥門用于宇宙飛船。他們至少應(yīng)該訂購200美元的那種
Here's a thought... how about we don't allow Boeing to build any more spaceships. Or airplanes. (Wouldn't be the first time companies got iced for unsafe incompetence.)
這是個想法……我們不讓波音再建造任何飛船或飛機(jī)或者其他的。（這不是第一次公司因不安全和無能而被凍結(jié)。）
I’m not sure they’re even capable anymore. I feel bad for the people who’s blood sweat and tears helped build a great company. Now they’re just watching die by a thousand cuts.
我不確定他們是否還有能力。我為那些用血汗和淚水幫助建立偉大公司的員工感到難過?，F(xiàn)在他們只能眼睜睜地看著公司變得千瘡百孔。

I am scared shitless for these astronauts. They'll be back in a leaky spaceship
我為這些宇航員感到非常害怕。他們將乘坐四處漏氣的飛船回來
