but good luck to astronauts butch wilmore and sonny williams -- [laughs] butch wilmore and sonny williamswill figure this out because they have incredible astronaut names. don't they? does nasa screen for that kind of thing? are they like, "well, your physics scores are the highest we've ever seen, but unfortunately, we just can't put a "brayden" on the m sorry, i'm getting a little dizzy right now. by the way, you heard right, that spaceship is made by boeing. jesus christ! it must be so embarrassing to work at boeing right now. their engineers are meeting people at parties, like, "me, i'm, uh, diddy's publicist." for more on the situation at the international space station, let's go there live with ronny chieng. [cheers and applause] you are floating! ronny, you're embedded with the crew? what's the mood up there? >> it's fine, kosta. everyone needs to calm down. this isn't the mets. these people are professionals. yeah, there were a couple of leaks, but they're all fixed and we'll be back on earth soon. >> michael: that's great news. and perfect timing, because the trump-biden debate i

breath a bit because this mission was already postponed a few times, veteran nasa astronauts, butch wilmore and suni williams are on board. and boeing is trying with this to compete with its rivals space x as nasa tries to collaborate with private industry partners. >> if successful, suni williams would become the first woman aboard any crewed test flight like this years of work has gone into this moment and it has not been without setbacks, as i've mentioned. >> so let's bring in space and defense correspondent kristin fisher. she is live it kennedy space center for us as well as former nasa administrator, charles bolden. okay. so kristen, is this going to happen today? >> allison, with about 24 minutes left on the countdown clock, we are go for launch. we've been watching two things this morning too. potential problem spots for nasa, boeing in the united launch alliance. and that is first the wind. it's been very gusty here, but so far, so good on the weather front, the weather team saying we are go for launch as of now, and then the other issue we've been watching has been an issue with

this is where the two nasa astronauts, butch wilmore sunny williams, are right now. but momentarily these capsule is going to separate from the rocket. the atlas five rocket built and operated by a different company the united launch alliance, that is a critical moment. one of the more dangerous moment, so to speak, aside from the actual lift off, so that's something we're going to be watching very closely but if all of that goes according to plan, you have nico main engine cutoff. then what you're going to see is butch wilmore and sunny williams finally getting to test out boeing's starliner spacecraft in space. and they're gonna be spending about eight days he's up at the international space station testing out the spacecraft itself, but also delivering some cargo to the crew that's already up there. and, you know, allison they're bringing a lot of supplies but one of the things that's most important right now, it's easy to laugh about this but i'm going to the bathroom of the international space station is pretty important. and up there, they recycle all of the as

but i'm so happy for sunny williams and butch wilmore, two good friends, i trained with, i flew jets with butch and was a c squared, we prep the vehicles, the shuttles before every launch and we ingress the crew before they launch before it was my turn to fly. i know these guys very well and they're excited to get to the international space station. and then what is going to be very interesting is how they come back home. they're going to come back with a capsule, parachute, land in the desert, and i'll be curious to see what kind of forces they encounter as they come in and they land. that's going to be very exciting. that's the only thing different from my mission is that we landed like an airplane, glider, if you will, and they're coming down in a capsule with some parachutes and lots of delays, but, you know, nasa takes safety very serious, and so does boeing and i commend them for not succumbing to public pressure of just getting it out in order for the sake of getting it out. and they did it the right way. and i applaud them. >> can i make the point, nasa has hired boeing for si
