NASA will attempt to send a pair of astronauts to space aboard Boeing's Starliner for the first time, following previous delays and setbacks.
Boeing's Starliner is part of NASA's efforts to develop new spacecraft through the Commercial Crew Program, potentially becoming a competitor to SpaceX.
The launch, scheduled at 10:34 PM ET from Cape Canaveral, will be conducted by United Launch Alliance's Atlas V rocket, with the astronauts testing Starliner's capabilities on a one-week journey to the ISS.
