Events
The Starliner crew continues its training under Drexel College of Engineering alumnus Chris Ferguson (MEM ’84), as Boeing makes an executive decision to push back their crewed launch. Instead of simply docking at the International Space Station as originally planned, the first crewed Starliner mission is now an extended duration mission, with expanded testing and research opportunities. An uncrewed flight is tentatively scheduled for August. The inaugural crewed flight is targeted for November 2019. Enjoy Chapter 2 of our “Capt. Ferguson and the Starliner” matching game as the countdown to launch continues.
