TIL: The Boeing Starliner lost 4 out of 5 thrusters during its approach of the ISS. They had to reboot the system twice, before they got enough thrusters back, and they weren't able to cancel the maneuver either, because re-entry would have been too dangerous with maneuverability. So they actually risked crashing the thing into the ISS.

I guess being stranded there afterwards was a rather relaxing experience for the astronauts, compared to that ordeal.
