[NASA: The "Starliner" will be used after repair, but not manned yet] September 29th, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) announced on September 28 that it will continue to use Boeing's "Starliner" to carry out unmanned missions to the International Space Station, but it will only launch new manned missions after the spacecraft "improves its design." Just in February this year, NASA issued an investigation report that determined that the failure of the "Starliner" first manned test flight was a "Category A" accident with the highest severity level. Previous accidents of the U.S. space shuttles "Challenger" and "Columbia" were deemed to be accidents of the same category. (Xinhua News Agency)
