Boeing's Starliner Crewed Launch Scrubbed Minutes Before Liftoff from Cape Canaveral on Atlas V
Jun 1, 2024, 01:57 PM
Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, set for its first crewed flight to the International Space Station (ISS), faced another setback as the launch was scrubbed minutes before liftoff. The mission, which includes NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams, was halted due to a computer ground launch sequencer issue. The launch, initially scheduled for June 1 at 12:25 pm ET from Cape Canaveral aboard an Atlas V rocket by ULA, was delayed despite favorable weather conditions and the resolution of a previous helium leak. The team is now working to understand the cause of the issue, with a potential 24-hour recycle for another launch attempt on June 2. This mission is crucial for Boeing as it aims to certify the Starliner for regular ISS missions and provide NASA with a second mode of access to orbit.
