Boeing's Starliner Crewed Launch Delayed Again
TL;DR
Boeing's Starliner test flight was delayed again due to a computer issue with the Atlas V rocket's countdown system, halting the launch just minutes before liftoff. NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams were already aboard when the hold was called. The next launch attempt is scheduled for Wednesday, pending resolution of the computer glitch. This delay adds to a series of setbacks for the Starliner program, which is years behind its original schedule.
