Boeing's Starliner mission has safely docked with the International Space Station after navigating new issues that cropped up overnight and Thursday en route to the orbiting laboratory. Docking occurred at 1:34 p.m. ET. Now, steps are being taken to more firmly secure the connection between Starliner and the space station's port. After a successful launch that was a decade in the making, Boeing's Starliner mission experienced helium leaks and a temporary loss of thrusters during its journey to the space station, according to NASA. |
