Boeing March 2019 Progress Photos

Boeing astronaut and CST-100 Starliner Crew Flight Test crew member Chris Ferguson trains for a contingency water landing in NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. Starliner is designed to land on land, but it can also abort to safe water landings if needed. For safety, all Starliner crews will prepare for all possible scenarios, however unlikely. Boeing’s Crew Flight Test is part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, which is working with Boeing to return human spaceflight launches to the space station from U.S. soil.
