About 15 minutes after the launch, the rocket separated from the spacecraft, allowing Starliner to fly on its own. At 11:24 a.m. ET, Boeing Space said Starliner had successfully reached stable orbit.Starliner is designed to carry a seven-person crew, but aboard the "test drive" launch ...
It comes after the launch of Starliner was delayed several times. The crewed flight test was tentatively scheduled for May 6, but was scrubbed after a problem with an oxygen valve on the ULA rocket. A new launch date had been set for May 25, but a small helium leak was discovered in ...

multiyear development, it will come as a relief for Boeing that Monday night’s problem has nothing to do with its spacecraft. Now its down to ULA engineers to investigate the issue with the Centaur stage of the Atlas V rocket and to fix it so that the launch team can make another go...

The first Starliner crew is in quarantine ahead of their scheduled May 6 launch. The two NASA astronauts to fly aboard BoeingStarliner, Barry "Butch" Wilmore and pilot Suni Williams, entered standard pre-flight quarantine on Tuesday (April 22) at NASA'sJohnson Space Center(JSC) in Houston, ...
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. When the mission finally gets underway, Wilmore and Williams will fly to the International Space Station...
在5月6日发射前两小时,工程师们发现阿特拉斯5号火箭第二级或上部的一个阀门出现了问题。阿特拉斯5号火箭是由波音和洛克希德马丁的合资企业联合发射联盟(United launch Alliance)制造的。包括火箭和航天器在内的整个堆栈都从发射台滚回进行测试和维修。 团队还解决了航天器服务舱内的一个小氦泄漏问题,这是推进系统的...
Williams and Wilmore were in their seats aboard Starliner on May 6, only about two hours from a historic launch when engineers identified an issue with a valve on the second stage, or upper portion, of the Atlas V rocket. The entire stack, including the rocket and spacecraft, was then ro...
