B.USOC on the RTBF News

2019-12-24

Michel Kruglansli, head of B.USOC (Belgian User Support and Operations Centre) at BIRA-IASB was interviewed by the french-speaking RTBF News about the Starliner test flight.

The Starliner was developed by Boeing, with the intention of replacing the Russian Soyuz rockets. The Soyuz are currently being used to bring astronauts to the International Space Station, and this costs the NASA and ESA quite a lot of money.

Although the unmanned Starliner capsule has not reached the ISS, it has safely landed back on Earth. A positive sign for the future!
