NASA and Boeing conduct their first manned flight test in July

The United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration ( NASA ) and Boeing are now aiming to conduct the first manned flight test of Boeing's Starliner spacecraft in July, according to a press conference held on Wednesday.

For the flight test, the Starliner spacecraft will be launched aboard a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, southeastern United States.

On board the test flight will be two NASA astronauts, Butch Wilmore and Sonny Williams, and this flight is expected to demonstrate the comprehensive capabilities of the "Starliner" system, according to (NASA).

After the success of the manned test flight, NASA will begin the final certification process for the Starliner spacecraft and systems for manned patrol flights to the space station.

It is worth noting that the Starliner spacecraft has carried out two unmanned flights so far.
