United Launch Alliance is scheduled to launch a Atlas V N22 rocket as part of the CST-100 Starliner Orbital Flight Test 2 (Uncrewed) mission. The launch window for the Test Flight mission is on 12/01/2020 UTC (UNCONFIRMED) from Cape Canaveral, FL, USA. Don’t miss this exciting rocket launch! Watch the launch video of the Atlas V N22 and experience the excitement for yourself.
This is the second uncrewed test flight for the Starliner spacecraft. Reflight of the OFT mission will allow Boeing to demonstrate readiness of the spacecraft and implement corrections to the problems which were found during the first OFT flight.
The Atlas V N22 is a crew rated variant of the Atlas V 422 – it sports two solid motor strap on boosters with two liquid fueled stages. It will be primarly used to support NASA’s Commercial Crew program by taking the CST-100 to orbit.
