In response to the article, NASA has confirmed that astronauts flying to the International Space Station (ISS) on Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft will not be trapped on the spacecraft in case of an emergency. The agency stated that the Starliner’s design includes an independent life support system and a hatch that can be opened from both inside and outside the spacecraft. This means that crew members will be able to exit the spacecraft in case of an emergency. The article states that some people were concerned that astronauts would be trapped on the spacecraft and unable to return to Earth in case of a problem. However, NASA and Boeing have assured that this will not be the case.
