Starliner, without its astronauts, will make a twilight landing on Earth under parachutes on Sept. 7 after fully undocking from the International Space Station during the evening of Sept. 6.
NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams launched on Crew Flight Test, the first human launch with Boeing Starliner, on June 5. They were supposed to make a re-entry and landing on the spacecraft, but NASA elected to switch them onto SpaceX Crew Dragon for a February 2025 landing after problems arose with the Starliner propulsion system during docking that could not be resolved.
