Boeing to try again to launch first Starliner crewed mission
Boeing's (BA.N) Starliner spacecraft is set for a third attempt to fly astronauts to space for the first time on Wednesday, a much-delayed testing milestone in the aerospace giant's ambitions to step up its competition with Elon Musk's SpaceX.
The gumdrop-shaped CST-100 Starliner capsule, with two astronauts aboard, is due for liftoff at 10:52 a.m. ET (1452 GMT) from a launch pad at the Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida, strapped to an Atlas V rocket from Boeing-Lockheed Martin (LMT.N) joint venture United Launch Alliance (ULA).
