Boeing Starliner Astronaut Mission Scrubbed
Launch Window Target Misses
Next Launch Opportunity Pending
The highly anticipated first crewed spaceflight of Boeing's Starliner spacecraft has been delayed. The spacecraft was scheduled to launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on Wednesday morning, but a technical issue forced NASA to scrub the launch.
The issue was discovered during a pre-launch countdown. According to NASA, a valve in the spacecraft's propulsion system failed to open properly. Engineers are working to resolve the issue, but it is not yet clear when the next launch attempt will be.
This is the latest in a series of setbacks for Boeing's Starliner program. The spacecraft has been plagued by technical problems since its inception, and this latest issue is another blow to the program.
NASA is investigating the issue and will determine when the next launch attempt will be. In the meantime, the Starliner spacecraft will remain on the launch pad.
