With no crew aboard, spacecraft Starliner lands without a hitch
The beleaguered Starliner spacecraft, built by Boeing, successfully
landed in New Mexico just after midnight Eastern time, ending a
crucial test flight that proved to be a real headache for NASA.
Officials at the space agency feared that Starliner's thrusters might
malfunction during its return, just as some thrusters had on its
journey to the International Space Station.
That's why, when the gumdrop-shaped space capsule parachuted down to
Earth, it carried only cargo -- and its first crew remained safely on
board the International Space Station.
