Boeing Is Back in the Space Race
On Thursday, May 19, just before 7 p.m. ET, Boeing (NYSE: BA) returned to space.
More specifically, Boeing began its return to crewed spaceflight, launching an unmanned CST-100 Starliner space capsule atop an Atlas V rocket (operated by its joint venture with Lockheed Martin) en route to the International Space Station (ISS). It was one final test before Boeing gets the go-ahead from NASA to attempt a crewed mission to ISS.
One day later, Boeing's Starliner successfully docked with ISS at 8:28 p.m. ET.
