Boeing's CST-100 Starliner spacecraft continues to face significant challenges as it works towards crew certification after returning from its test flight to the International Space Station. NASA confirmed progress is being made on resolving in-flight anomalies and preparing for upcoming propulsion testing, but the exact timeline for Starliner's next launch remains unclear. NASA officials expect further updates on certification and the spacecraft's schedule for ISS missions by the end of the year. In contrast, SpaceX's Crew Dragon has achieved numerous successful missions, highlighting the differing trajectories of the two companies in NASA’s Commercial Crew program.
Once we get through these planned test campaigns, we will have a better idea of when we can go fly the next Boeing flight.
It is likely to be in the timeframe of late this calendar year or early next year for the next Starliner flight.
