NASA has named the two astronauts set to participate in the first crewed test flight of Boeing’s new Starliner spacecraft.
A date for the CFT mission will be determined once NASA and Boeing have completed their assessment of the flight data from May’s uncrewed test mission. The space agency said it’s hoping to announce a schedule for CFT toward the end of next month. “Based upon current space station resources and scheduling needs, a short duration mission with two astronaut test pilots is sufficient to meet all NASA and Boeing test objectives for CFT, which include demonstrating Starliner’s ability to safely fly operational crewed missions to and from the space station,” NASA said in a release shared on Thursday.
