The spacecraft destined to fly astronauts to the International Space Station in Boeing's Crew Flight Test (CFT) is inspected following removal from its shipping container inside the company's testing facilities in El Segundo, California, on Nov. 21, 2018. The company's CST-100 Starliner will be undergoing a series of environmental tests designed to simulate what it will experience during different stages of flight as part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program (CCP). The agency's CCP will return human spaceflight launches to U.S. soil, providing safe, reliable and cost-effective access to low-Earth orbit on systems that meet our safety and mission requirements.

NASA’s Nicole Mann is one of three astronauts who will fly on Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner in an upcoming Crew Flight Test to the International Space Station. Mann, along with fellow commercial crew astronauts Eric Boe and Chris Ferguson, recently toured spacecraft testing facilities in Huntington Beach and El Segundo, Calif. Structural testing in Huntington Beach confirms the spacecraft can withstand the pressures it will experience during flight. Environmental qualification testing in El Segundo ensures the spacecraft can withstand the extreme environments of space.
