Boeing's Starliner Returns to Earth Uncrewed, Landing in White Sands, New Mexico
Sep 6, 2024, 10:43 PM
Boeing's Starliner spacecraft has departed from the International Space Station and is returning to Earth without its crew. The uncrewed capsule is expected to land at White Sands Space Harbor in New Mexico approximately six hours after departure. This return follows months of safety concerns and technical issues, including problems with thrusters and helium leaks, which led to the decision to bring the crew members back in February on a SpaceX capsule. NASA and Boeing teams are overseeing the mission, which highlights ongoing challenges for Boeing's space program. NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams were originally scheduled to be on the Starliner.
