The conclusion of the Boeing Starliner Crew Flight Test comes exactly three months after the spacecraft docked at the International Space Station with NASA astronauts Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams onboard. After months of testing, both on the ground and on orbit though, NASA wasn't comfortable with returning Wimore and Williams to Earth onboard Starliner. That means the spacecraft will return uncrewed for a landing at the White Sands Space Harbor in New Mexico, as it did during the uncrewed Orbital Flight Test 2 (OFT-2) in 2022.

In this video, Spaceflight Now Reporter Will Robinson-Smith explains why this decision was made and what happens next with the Starliner program
