NASA Sets 2028 Crewed Return for Boeing Starliner
Original: NASA Sets 2028 Crewed Return for Boeing Starliner after 2024 Flight Problems
NASA has scheduled Boeing's Starliner spacecraft to fly astronauts again in 2028, following the troubled 2024 crewed test flight that left two astronauts aboard the International Space Station for months and returned the capsule uncrewed. The decision signals the agency is keeping Starliner in its commercial crew rotation, but on a timeline that raises questions about Boeing's future role in routine crew transport.
Why now: People are following whether Boeing's Starliner can recover its reputation and role in NASA's crew program after its well-publicized 2024 failures.
