Good point, what was the main issue with the capsule? or was it with the rocket that took this in to space?
There is also perhaps going to be a need to transport items to from facilities in space, if we build a new ISS and also build one orbiting the Moon, then items / people need moving around.
I have often thought we need like they have on Star trek, shuttles or runabouts (DS9).
Is thus such a bad thing, as humans explore and spend more time living / working in space, we are going to need a way to get people to / from space, but also supplies, if Boeing can be part of the supply solution.
