Starliner: A Customizable Spacecraft for NASA Missions
The Boeing Starliner, or CST-100, is a partially reusable spacecraft designed to transport crew to and from the International Space Station (ISS). Its unique configuration allows for customization, enabling NASA to tailor missions to specific scientific and research objectives.
This upcoming crewed mission will pave the way for Starliner to become a reliable and integral part of NASA's Human Spaceflight Program, supporting research and exploration activities on the ISS and beyond.
