Boeing Starliner's Crewed Launch Faces Delay Due to Computer Error

Boeing has experienced another setback with its Starliner spacecraft as a computer glitch halted the first crewed launch minutes before lift-off. The mission to the International Space Station (ISS) was aborted to investigate an automatic hold triggered by the rocket's system.

This delay adds to the project's existing technical difficulties, causing it to fall further behind schedule. Boeing and United Launch Alliance (ULA) are currently working to determine the cause of the hold and address the issues before the next launch attempt.

The spacecraft, with astronauts Wilmore and Williams on board, aims to certify Boeing as a commercial crew operator once the technical issues are resolved. The first crewed flight of Starliner is a significant milestone, offering an alternative to SpaceX's Crew Dragon, which has been operational for years.

NASA and its partners are preparing to provide live coverage of the launch on various platforms.
