NASA’s biggest issue over the last 35 years is that it became a political target. It is really hard to do long term design when your mission changes every 4 years along with a different budget.

It seems like it is time to nationalize Boeing.
I’ve given up on YouTube because of its terrible interface and just use tube archivist + Jellyfin.
