Starliner crew are reporting hearing strange "sonar like noises" from the spacecraft

It does not sound serious but still? why would it be isolated to just the Starliner and not the station too

🚨#BREAKING: Boeing's Starliner crew are reporting hearing strange "sonar like noises" emanating from the spacecraft

📌#OuterSpace | #Earth

Crews on the International Space Station are trying to identify the source of strange noises reported by Boeing’s Starliner crew, who contacted Mission Control saying, ‘Houston, on two, we have a question about Starliner. We are hearing strange noises coming from the speaker, and we don’t know what’s causing it.’ The Starliner began emitting these ‘strange sonar noises,’ and astronauts on the ISS are working to diagnose the issue, which occurred on Saturday. Since the launched by Boeing on June 5th, the Starliner has faced several problems and significant challenges, temporarily stranding two astronauts. Due to safety concerns, Boeing’s Starliner is set to return on September 6th with no crew on board.

They've been under a lot of stress. I thought SpaceX was coming to rescue them.

Man that makes want to see the whole movie with all the extended scenes

Elon probably did it just to mess with them through one of those old fashion emails that changed your screen saver and messed with the sounds.

But really, It sounds like something rotating and the speaker is getting interference with each go around.

Damn I hope its not the noise of metal fatigue/stress..not fun.

Hopefully they are just getting pinged by a space whale.

Agree - still the best for me.
epic.

A more worrisome, probable/possible explanation could be that the speaker wire is picking up signals from other spacecraft wiring.

The fact that the speaker was not doing this before suggests ongoing degradation of the spacecraft wiring, highly possible since Boeing has struggled before with that very spacecraft's wiring insulation.

If I'm right, next problem up would be sporadic electical issues, then fire.....


Hope I'm wrong.....

Yeah thats not good, but that sound from faulty wiring? like power surges? wouldn't that show up on meters or gauges on board?

Cast it loose from the ISS, then kill it with fire.

Audio engineer screwed up and let the click track into the main mix.



FYI:

A click track is used by performers and musicians to stay in time...

...you know, choreographed zero g floating.
