Watch live as two NASA astronauts launch from Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft as one of the final steps on the road to certification.
Launch of the ULA (United Launch Alliance) Atlas V rocket and Starliner spacecraft is targeted for 10:34 p.m. EDT Monday, May 6.
Or (0234 UTC Tuesday, May 7) from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
The two NASA astronauts aboard are flight commander Butch Wilmore and pilot Suni Williams.
Both will test the end-to-end capabilities of the Starliner system, including launch, docking, and return to Earth.
After a one-week stay docked to the International Space Station, the Starliner and crew will land under parachutes in the western United States.
Launch coverage on NASA+ (https://plus.nasa.gov) will end shortly after Starliner orbital insertion. NASA Television (https://nasa.gov/nasatv) will provide continuous coverage leading up to docking and through hatch opening and welcome remarks.
NASA’s Commercial Crew Programme works with the American aerospace industry through a public-private partnership. This to launch astronauts on American rockets and spacecraft from American soil.
The goal of the program to provide safe, reliable, and cost-effective transportation on space station missions, this allows for additional research time.
Weather is looking promising for NASA’s Boeing Crew Flight Test. This to send two of the agency’s astronauts to the International Space Station.
Launch weather officers with the U.S. Space Force’s 45th Weather Squadron predict a 95% chance of favourable weather conditions at the launch pad for a liftoff.
