How to watch Boeing Starliner Crew Flight’s Third Launch attempt

United Launch Alliance (ULA), NASA, and Boeing are ready for the third Starliner spacecraft launch attempt on June 5. It follows the first launch scrub on May 6, and the second on June 1. These two previous scrubs were called due to technical and ground support issues.

Engineers from these three partners have resolved the current issues and a liftoff targeting at 10:52 a.m. ET on Wednesday. The Atlas V rocket will launch from Space Launch Complex-41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

Spacecraft will carry NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams to the International Space Station and also bring them back after a week. With a successful liftoff and orbit insertion, Starliner will dock at the forward-facing port of the Space Station’s Harmony module at around 12:15 p.m. on June 6.

Upon return, NASA will complete the Starliner’s final certification of the transportation system for the rotational missions to the station under NASA’s Commercial Crew Program.

You can watch the live stream of the Boeing Starliner mission’s third launch attempt at 6:45 a.m. on NASA+, NASA Television, the NASA app, its YouTube channel, and the official NASA website. Similarly, Boeing will also host the live broadcast on its official website.

NASA confirmed that the launch coverage will end shortly after Starliner achieves orbit. However, further coverage will be provided during docking and hatch opening.

Arrival Coverage

You can tune in at 9:30 a.m. on June 6 for the arrival coverage on NASA+ and other platforms. The targeted docking is planned for 12:15 p.m., hatch opening at 2 p.m., and welcome remarks at 2:20 p.m.
