Boeing's Starliner to Launch First Crewed Mission to ISS Monday at 10:34 PM ET
May 6, 2024, 05:13 PM
After years of delays and being more than a billion dollars over budget, Boeing's Starliner spacecraft is set to launch its first crewed mission to the International Space Station (ISS) on Monday at 10:34 PM ET. The launch, which will take place from Cape Canaveral, will be the spacecraft's first piloted test flight under NASA's Commercial Crew Program. Astronauts Barry 'Butch' Wilmore and Sunita Williams will pilot the mission aboard the Atlas V rocket, marking a critical milestone for Boeing as it demonstrates an alternative to SpaceX for commercial space travel.
