TL;DR Summary

Boeing's CST-100 Starliner crewed test flight to the International Space Station (ISS) has been delayed again, likely until the summer, as NASA assesses its readiness. The Starliner spacecraft is part of a $4.3 billion contract with NASA's Commercial Crew Program to transport astronauts to the ISS, but has yet to complete a crewed mission while SpaceX has completed six. Boeing completed an uncrewed test flight in May 2022, but suffered hiccups and delays. It remains unclear when Boeing's six crewed flights to the ISS will happen.
