Boeing's Starliner Set to Launch
Critical Test Flight for Commercial Space Capsule
NASA's long-awaited Starliner spacecraft is set to embark on its first-ever astronaut mission on a critical test flight to demonstrate its readiness for commercial space operations. The launch, scheduled for 10:52 am, will mark a significant milestone in the development of Boeing's commercial space capsule.
Watch the Event Live
NASA will provide live coverage of the prelaunch and launch activities, allowing the public to witness this historic event as it unfolds. The live broadcast will be available on NASA's website and social media channels.
Backup Launch Opportunity
In the event of any unforeseen circumstances or weather delays, a backup launch opportunity is scheduled for Thursday at 10:29 am. The two crew members on board Starliner are veteran astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, who will conduct a series of tests and maneuvers during their six-month mission to the International Space Station.
This test flight is crucial for Boeing to demonstrate that its Starliner capsule is safe and reliable for transporting astronauts to and from space. A successful mission will pave the way for future commercial flights and could open up new possibilities for human space exploration.
