It’s NASA, if they decide it’s that much of a threat then they can have an intern frankenstein together an adapter for their own certified batteries in an afternoon.
today’s NASA couldn’t frankenstein a functioning SLS from the old parts of the entire shuttle series so far.
also, do you really think the concern is recharging the batteries? or replacing them with certified batteries? pfft. the concern is li-ons bloating then catching fire in a high oxygen env, and having NO WHERE TO PUT THE SMOULDERING SHITPILE.
swapping them before launch isn’t going to happen in a month, they’ll simply fly with the risk.
NASA has been flying batteries on manned missions for decades. If your all-caps nonsense were a real problem, then NASA could just use something other than lithium ion like NiCad.

yeah how many lion batteries in cell phones have gone up. Feel free to use your fingers and toes to count if it helps lol.
numpty.

you ever swapped the li-on i a cell phone for something else? no. phones are tailored to the battery chemistry they’re designed for. also, ever done it in a hasty rush to meet a launch schedule?
do you expect the battery monitoring system to suddenly work with a new battery chemistry?

stupid risks that shouldn’t be necessary.
Chill, buddy.

goddamn bro, try harder ffs
What, precisely, are you suggesting is different about cell phone batteries that wouldn’t also apply to the batteries in NASA’s DSLRs and GoPros?
