Strange Noises Emanating from a Speaker Inside the Starliner Spacecraft
On Saturday NASA astronaut Butch Wilmore noticed some strange noises emanating from a speaker inside the Starliner spacecraft. "I've got a question about Starliner," Wilmore radioed down to Mission Control, at Johnson Space Center in Houston. "There's a strange noise coming through the speaker. I don't know what's making it." Wilmore said he was not sure if there was some oddity in the connection between the station and the spacecraft causing the noise, or something else. He asked the flight controllers in Houston to see if they could listen to the audio inside the spacecraft. A few minutes later, Mission Control radioed back that they were linked via "hardline" to listen to audio inside Starliner, which has now been docked to the International Space Station for nearly three months. Wilmore, apparently floating in Starliner, then put his microphone up to the speaker inside Starliner. Shortly thereafter, there was an audible pinging that was quite distinctive. "Alright Butch, that one came through," Mission control radioed up to Wilmore. "It was kind of like a pulsing noise, almost like a sonar ping." "I'll do it one more time, and I'll let y'all scratch your heads and see if you can figure out what's going on," Wilmore replied. The odd, sonar-like audio then repeated itself. "Alright, over to you. Call us if you figure it out." A recording of this audio, and Wilmore's conversation with Mission Control, was captured and shared by a Michigan-based meteorologist named Rob Dale. |

Re: Strange Noises Emanating from a Speaker Inside the Starliner Spacecraft
FUCK!! They are being stalked by a German U-Boat!!!! Seriously, I understand that the radios on the Starliner are so powerful, they can pick up broadcasts of "Amos and Andy" even though the show has been off the air for over 70 years!  |

Picking up a sonar buoy from NOAA for detecting tsunamis and other oceanic disturbances maybe? |

Re: Strange Noises Emanating from a Speaker Inside the Starliner Spacecraft
Watch live as Boeing's uncrewed Starliner spacecraft leaves low Earth orbit, reenters Earth's atmosphere, and touches down at White Sands Space Harbor in New Mexico. Starliner is scheduled to begin its deorbit burn at 11:17 p.m. EDT on Friday, Sept. 6 (0317 UTC Sept. 7), with landing scheduled for 12:03 a.m. EDT (0403 UTC) on Saturday, Sept. 7. NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams launched aboard Starliner on June 5 for its first crewed flight, arriving at the International Space Station on June 6. As Starliner approached the orbiting laboratory, NASA and Boeing identified helium leaks and experienced issues with the spacecraft reaction control thrusters. For the safety of the astronauts, NASA announced on Aug. 24 that Starliner would return to Earth from the station without a crew. Wilmore and Williams will remain aboard the station and return home in February 2025 on the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft as part of NASA's SpaceX Crew-9 mission. Following Starliner's return to Earth, a post-landing news conference is scheduled for 1:30 a.m. EDT (0530 UTC). |
