After years of delays and, more recently, weeks of setbacks, Boeing is once again ready to launch its first-ever Starliner astronaut mission for NASA on a test flight to the International Space Station on June 5, and if you're hoping to watch the launch online, you'll need to know when to tune in. But don't fret, space fans. We've got you covered. Currently, Boeing's first Starliner to carry astronauts is set to launch into orbit at 10:52 a.m EDT (1452 GMT) on Wednesday, June 5 atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. The mission will launch NASA astronauts Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams on a week-long test flight to the space station, a shakedown cruise Boeing calls its Crew Flight Test, or CFT.
