Richard Arnold: US correspondent on Boeing being poised to launch Boeing Starliner into space, trillions of cicadas emerge

Boeing is poised to launch astronauts to the International Space Station for Nasa.  The Boeing Starliner is set for launch tomorrow, years behind schedule and more than a billion dollars over budget.   US correspondent Richard Arnold tells Mike Hosking Boeing has struggled with all sorts of technical issues as they work to become the alternate space operator.  When it was tested for the first time, the Starliner had a computer problem that put it in the wrong orbit – detrimental if it were to have had people on board.  Plus, the emergence of trillions of cicadas is under way in parts of the US. The invasion is expected to last for six weeks.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
