Problem that they need to walk back. dana: give us a quick synopsis. what did he say? what he said basically was netanyahu was keeping the war going on for political purposes. dana: prolonging the war, that s right. that was a horrible thing to say about your ally to accuse them of basically wasting lives for political purposes and i think he has to walk that comment back from that time interview. dana: he is about to see the world leaders at the g7. maybe we ll hear more from there. thank you for your time today, steven and mark. thank you. bill: more to come. here is a beautiful look right now at the boeing star liner on florida s east coast, all right? they are a year behind schedule. $1.5 billion over budget. dana: is that all? bill: boeing and nasa have a lot on the line and see whether or not we can get going in an hour and 14 minutes. stand by. we re watching it from space

Prelaunch speech speeches. their advisers have closed and they are now ready for liftoff. if all goes according to plan they will be spending eight days aboard the international space station and allison, the reason this is so critical is because nasa wants redundancy. nasa does not want to be dependent strictly on spacex to get its astronauts to the international space station, nor does it want to be reliant upon the russian soyuz rockets to get its astronauts up there. so this is about having thank more options for nasa and its astronauts to allow them to focus on bigger, loftier goals, like returning american astronauts to the moon for the first time since the polo program, allison so here we go 48 seconds away. okay. so first very bright quickly tell us about the astronauts, tell us about sunny in book they are as experienced of nasa astronauts as you can possibly get both to navy test pilots. butch spent his final day here on earth for
solid rocket boosters have been jetsoned, team on the ground confirming it was a good jettison and the vehicle trajectory continues to look good at three minutes. bill: okay. this looks like a great american success story. finally good for boeing, good for nasa. they couldn t screw this up. you and i are sitting here watching this and memories of 1986 and when america always held its breath in that moment and so we ve come a long way. terry, retired nasa astronaut. what were you thinking and feeling watching that nervous. seeing the launch made me proud to be an american. a good day for america and nasa especially for boeing. it has been a rough few years or boeing and some of my best friends worked on this program so it s a really great day for them. still a few minutes to go so
The latest you re watching. we all systems go, kristen? yeah. john with t -59 minutes and 18 seconds. all systems are go for launch, right? now, the weather looks good they fix the problem that caused the scrub on saturday. the rocket is fully fueled and the astronauts, nasa astronaut butch wilmore and sunny williams are inside boeing s starliner spacecraft and the hatches closed to give you guys an idea of what i m talking about here. i m going to pull up this one model. it s a little outdated, so bear with me. the launchpad is about four or five miles behind me, but this is essentially what it looks like on the launchpad. you ve got the boeing starliner spacecraft on top. this is where the two astronauts are. this is the part that s really being tested on this test flight. and then the rest of it this is the atlas five rocket, which is built and operated by a different company, the united launch alliance.
Country in numbers we ve never, ever seen. dana: we appreciate your take on it and the fact that you are there and have your finger on the pulse in the beautiful city of san diego. thank you for your time. i m sure we ll be back in touch. appreciate it. thank you for having me on. bill: 15 minutes now before the hour and well, well, well, we are getting closer by the moment, okay? dana: do you think it is going to happen? bill: i was watching on saturday with our colleagues at fox and got to the last minute and they scrapped the sucker and done it repeatedly now for a year. the brand-new star liner from boeing and nasa is ready for launch. first time with a crew on board. astronauts going into space. we keep our fingers crossed but we hit the time in six minutes. hold where you are, america and we ll show you this when we return. on your credit cards
Have separated from the rest of the spacecraft and we ll essentially never be used again. they re totally expended civil but these two now continuing on into space and then just the capsule. and about 24 hours, hopefully rendezvous with the space station. and that curve up they re excited get into to finally see this astronauts and her friends in elson. chris and fissure. so good to have you walk us through this for all the contexts and for your expertise in this field what an exciting thing for all of us to witness live. that was really great. thank you very much. i want to bring in my colleague, wolf blitzer now, who helms the next hour and that was really exciting to see that live i totally agree, allison, it was really exciting no matter how many times you see a launch, like that, it is so, so pi i m so glad that kristin is on the scene for us helping us better, appreciate the enormity of this moment right now, the launch of this nasa, this boeing s starliner spacecraft. let me play, replay the
Moment for spaceflight in general. we re seeing a lot of competition mission across different types of launches and different organizations how do you feel about what we saw today no, i think it s a great step of proven capability and that s really important. i mean, as you say, it s been a huge week. china landed on the other side of the moon this week and just blasted off over the moon with a robot, which still bringing a sample back our rocket lab down in new zealand. just launched a nasa payload up into orbit to monitor the earth s health and tomorrow spent sex is launching starship on its fourth test flight. so i mean, it s a huge week for what can happen when we all put our minds together and try and do hard things but this specifically getting a new human rated vehicle with two friends of mine onboard safely into orbit. and on the right of space station that s a whole new kind of step of capability for the united states. and i m
