NASA Starliner launch to send astronauts to International Space Station: Where to see liftoff

Nasa astronauts butch wilmore & suni williams will fly aboard a boeing starliner spacecraft & ula atlas v rocket to international space station..

Godspeed, Starliner. After an initial attempt, Boeing's  maiden crewed flight  has been rescheduled, delayed and now possibly ready to launch.

Boeing is preparing to launch its  Starliner capsule on its first crewed mission from Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station . And parts of the Southeastern Coast of Florida may get a peek at the United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket lifting off into the sky.

As of Thursday, May 30, Starliner has a launch date of Saturday, June 1 (see below). If the launch time and date changes, this story will be updated.

On board the rocket will be two NASA astronauts. Flying this commercial crew mission are  Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams , both Navy test pilots. They have each flown in space twice (more info about them below).

Day or night, watching a rocket launch on the beach is  so  Florida. But can you see a rocket launch liftoff from Cape Canaveral all the way in Daytona Beach to Fort Pierce?

Weather permitting and depending on cloud cover, yes. We have suggestions on where and how to watch a rocket launch from Volusia County to the Space Coast to the Treasure Coast (just keep scrolling) along with information on NASA's Boeing Starliner rocket launch.

If you're on the Fun Coast of Florida, here's where to see liftoff of the ULA rocket

If you're on the Treasure Coast, here's where to see NASA Starliner launch

What is Boeing's Starliner?

Boeing's Starliner spacecraft will transport NASA astronauts. The company calls it the  Crew Space Transportation (CST)-100 Starliner, or simply “Starliner ." Set to launch no earlier than Saturday, June 1, 2024, it will make history as the first spacecraft to ferry humans from Space Launch Complex 41 in Cape Canaveral. The launch pad has been the site for historic missions beginning with the Titan rockets in 1965 and including the New Horizons deep space probe, the Voyager spacecraft, and even the Curiosity Mars rover.

Starliner will be launched with the help of a United Launch Alliance (a partnership between Boeing and Lockheed Martin) Atlas V rocket. The Atlas V rocket has launched from the site since 2002, but this will be the first time it carries astronauts to space.

What launches from where? Years after space shuttle retirement, Florida chases nearly 70 launches a year

Who are the NASA astronauts flying into space for Starliner launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida?

The two NASA astronauts flying this commercial crew mission are  Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams . Both are Navy test pilots. They have each flown in space twice and both bring a wide variety of experiences to the flight.

Williams was originally a helicopter test pilot before switching to flying jets. She's preparing to fly to space for the third time, as the crew test flight pilot.

This will be Wilmore's third spaceflight as well. Before becoming a NASA astronaut, Wilmore was a U.S. Navy captain, fighter pilot, and test pilot, accumulating more than 8,000 hours of flight time. Wilmore flew the FA-18 Hornet and T-45 Goshawk, playing a role in missions during Operation Desert Storm, Desert Shield and Southern Watch.

Is there a rocket launch in Florida? NASA’s Boeing Starliner crewed flight test

• Mission:   NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore will fly aboard a Boeing Starliner spacecraft  and a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket to the International Space Station.
• Launch:  no earlier than 12:25 p.m. EDT Saturday, June 1 (postponed after a May 6 scrub)

Where to watch a rocket launch from Space Coast of Florida, from Titusville and Mims to Cocoa Beach and Melbourne

Pretty much anywhere  in Brevard, you'll get a view of the rocket  launch. The best view to watch a rocket launch from the Space Coast is along the beach.
