NASA Plans New Missions for Boeing Starliner After Extended ISS Stay

NASA has announced new missions for Boeing's Starliner spacecraft, signaling renewed confidence in the vehicle. The capsule was last used in June 2024 to carry astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore to the International Space Station. What was planned as an eight-to-fourteen-day mission ended up lasting significantly longer than expected. The new mission assignments mark a continued role for Starliner in NASA's crewed spaceflight program.
