Boeing's Starliner spacecraft is being prepared for its first crewed flight test, scheduled for May 6 at 10:34pm ET. The spacecraft was moved from its production facility at NASA Kennedy to the Vertical Integration Facility at Space Launch Complex-41, where it will be mated with ULA's Atlas V rocket. This marks a significant step in the mission, which aims to send astronauts to the International Space Station.
One step closer to liftoff! 🚀 #Starliner's Crew Flight Test is set to launch May 6. Follow @Commercial_Crew and the blog for mission updates: https://t.co/msmEuNfynx https://t.co/ZwmaSLPnGc

🚀 From shaky liftoffs to securing @NASA's confidence for a crewed mission, @BoeingSpace is one step closer to redefining space travel and deliveries. MyRadar space correspondent @ZarrellaJohn gives a glimpse of the latest milestones in space exploration. https://t.co/2P00EWdXTh
This is remarkable! I thought 10 flights of a booster would be a stretch, now they’re at 20! They’re now over halfway to the Space Shuttle Discovery’s record of 39 orbital flights! But B1062 did it in just 3 and a half years, as opposed to Discovery which flew for 27 years! https://t.co/Bp9rRBzp19
