BOEING'S STARLINER LAUNCH CALLED OFF MINUTES BEFORE LIFT-OFF TO SPACE
The Daily Guardian
|June 03, 2024
The first human crewed flight of Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft carrying Indian-orgin Sunita Williams was cancelled minutes before it could take off from the Kennedy Space Centre.

According to US space agency NASA, the delay which happened at 3 minutes and 50 seconds before liftoff was called by an automated computer system, which takes over the flight sequence in the final minutes of the countdown.
“Teams have scrubbed today’s launch attempt for BoeingSpace’s Starliner Crew Flight Test due to an automatic hold of the ground launch sequencer,” NASA said in its broadcast on Saturday.
The ground launch sequencer is the computer that tells the rocket to launch.
The agency has scheduled a backup launch attempt for Sunday.
