Following Monday's postponement of the launch of the first crewed Starliner flight, NASA has revealed a new target date for the highly anticipated mission.
NASA has announced a new target date for the first crewed flight of Boeing Space’s Starliner spaceraft.
Recommended Videos The Starliner was supposed to launch on Monday, May 9, but an issue with a valve on the upper stage of United Launch Alliance’s rocket emerged just two hours before liftoff, prompting the flight to be scrubbed. NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams had just been strapped into their seats inside the spacecraft when news came through that the mission had been called off for the day.
It’s a setback for the mission team but safety has to come first and so engineers decided out of an abundance of caution to halt the countdown clock and prepare launch for another day.
