Boeing's Starliner Prepares for Historic First Crewed Launch with Astronaut Sunita Williams

TL;DR Summary
Boeing's Starliner mission, set to carry NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams on its maiden crewed voyage, was called off minutes before liftoff due to an automatic hold triggered by the ground launch sequencer. The next possible launch window is Wednesday, but teams are still assessing the issue. This mission is crucial for Boeing to prove Starliner's capabilities and compete with SpaceX's Crew Dragon under NASA's Commercial Crew Program.
