A United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket with Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner spacecraft aboard is seen on the launch pad illuminated by spotlights at Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The picture was taken on Test, Sunday, May 5, 2024, ahead of NASA’s Boeing Crew Flight. Credit: NASA/Joel Kowskyhas been postponed to no earlier than May 17 due to a faulty valve in the Atlas V rocket’s upper stage.
The oscillating behavior of the valve during prelaunch operations, ultimately resulted in mission teams calling a launch scrub on May 6. After the ground crews and astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams safely exited from Space Launch Complex-41, the ULA team successfully commanded the valve closed and the oscillations were temporarily dampened. The oscillations then re-occurred twice during fuel removal operations.
