Boeing Prepares for First Starliner Astronaut Mission
Critical Test Flight to Prove Space Capsule's Readiness
Mission to Launch as Early as May 6, 2024
Boeing is set to launch its first-ever Starliner astronaut mission for NASA as early as May 6, 2024. This critical test flight will demonstrate the spacecraft's readiness to ferry crews to and from the International Space Station.
The mission will involve a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket carrying Boeing's CST-100 Starliner spacecraft to the launchpad on May 4. If successful, this launch will mark a significant milestone for the aerospace giant, which has faced challenges in recent years.
Despite the setback, Boeing remains committed to the Starliner program. The company is confident that this upcoming mission will showcase the spacecraft's capabilities and pave the way for future crewed flights to the ISS.
