The Boeing CST-100 Starliner Orbital Flight Test (OFT) will launch the spacecraft aboard an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station SLC-41 to the ISS. This is the second launch of Boeing’s Starliner, a spacecraft that will soon transport astronauts to the International Space Station. No astronauts will be on board for this demonstration mission, but this launch is a necessary step prior to the final flight test with astronauts Butch Wilmore, Mike Fincke and Nicole Mann.
