The first crewed test launch of Boeing’s troubled Starliner spacecraft has been delayed yet again.
This time, however, it’s seemingly not about the aerospace giant’s massive technical difficulties in getting its astronaut shuttle off the ground — with or without a crew on board.
“Following a review of the International Space Station operations, NASA’s Boeing Crew Flight Test now is targeting no earlier than Monday, May 6, for Starliner’s first launch with astronauts to the orbital complex,” reads an official NASA update. “The date adjustment optimizes space station schedule of activities planned toward the end of April, including a cargo spacecraft undocking and a crew spacecraft port relocation required for Starliner docking.”
