NASA boosts support to get Boeing's Starliner flying again
Original: NASA ramps up support to get Boeing's astronaut capsule flying after Butch and Suni fiasco
NASA is increasing its support for Boeing's troubled Starliner astronaut capsule as the agency works to return the spacecraft to flight. The effort follows the widely covered mission in which astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams were left without a Starliner ride home, forcing an extended stay on the International Space Station while their capsule returned uncrewed.
Why now: The extended stay of astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams drew global attention to Starliner's problems, making new updates on the capsule's future newsworthy.
