That article states it was 56 days after the incident. I meant my question as to why it was not released at the time of the incident. So unless you can show an earlier appearance, my question stands.

Furthermore, the comment immediately preceding mine stated that it was not mentioned at the time. Context matters.

i’m not gonna play defense for NASA or Boeing, just assuming it takes time to investigate properly - probably some PR mentality went into it too but here you go https://www.space.com/starliner-astronaut-mission-landing-delay-july-2024
