NASA Identifies Source of Strange Sounds in Boeing Starliner

Astronauts report eerie noises from the spacecraft, traced to audio feedback between ISS and Starliner systems.

NASA astronaut Butch Wilmore first reported the noise, described as a 'sonar ping,' to Mission Control.
The sound was traced to an audio configuration issue between the ISS and the Starliner spacecraft.
NASA confirmed the noise posed no technical risk to the crew or spacecraft operations.
The Starliner is scheduled for an uncrewed return to Earth on September 6.
Astronauts Wilmore and Sunita Williams will return to Earth in February 2025 via SpaceX Crew Dragon.
