How did they get stuck

Define stuck. They're approved to use it as a lifeboat if there's an emergency. There are tests to do first.

Hear about all those airplanes falling out of the sky with doors falling off n shit? Same company also made the ISS escape shuttle. Majority of thrusters failed during docking and there are now multiple leaks. Ordering "more tests" sounds like there's serious concern to WTF else might possibly be wrong with this death trap that they don't know about just yet.

You turned over space travel to greedy corporations who have a legal obligation to make their share holders as rich as possible. What could have gone wrong? You know compared to dedicated government employees who are interested in progressing science and humanity while also preserving life and reputation above all else.

It's like asking why your house burnt down when you let an arsonist house sit for you instead of asking your cousin Larry who's actually a decent guy.

>But private industry can do it for cheaper!
Great, how's that working out for you retards? We got two astronauts who get to live in space for the rest of their short lives and an exploding stainless steel cock rocket boondoggle.

Simple as. SpaceX is spreading rumors because Starliner's successful deployment cuts their Dragon launches in half. Less $$$ for Elon.

No doubt. Starship has a proven record of burning up on re-entry, melting and falling into the Indian Ocean without a trace. What a perfect fit!

that's a loaded and subjective statement. For me, that'd imply that they have no means at all to return. But, if they do, and the mission simply got extended, then they're just doing their job, and they're not technically stuck.
Obviously, you can use the expression a bit more casually, as in "they were scheduled to return, but now they're stuck up there until the job is done".
Up to you, anon.

It's about unfucking the design as much as anything. They can't exactly do a postmortem of the service module once it's incinerated by re-entry.

Boeing won the bid over Sierra Nevada, because they bribed NASA officials. Mere notion that there could have been a Dream Chaser docked to the ISS right now, makes Starliner a blunder of the century for NASA.
