In 2014, NASA awarded a Commercial Crew Transportation Capability contract to Boeing to fly astronauts to and from the International Space Station with its #Starliner spacecraft; as part of its contract, Boeing was awarded up to six crewed flights to the orbital complex - after a thorough evaluation, the definitive order has been adjusted to four missions, with the remaining two available as options: https://www.nasa.gov/blogs/spacestation/2025/11/24/nasa-boeing-modify-commercial-crew-contract/. The next Starliner flight, known as Starliner-1, will be used by NASA to deliver necessary cargo to the orbital laboratory and allow in-flight validation of the system upgrades implemented following the Crew Flight Test mission last year - NASA and Boeing are targeting no earlier than April 2026 to fly the uncrewed Starliner-1 pending completion of rigorous test, certification, and mission readiness activities.
