Boeing Starliner capsule returning from ISS with empty cabin #

Boeing’s Starliner capsule is returning from its three-month stay at the International Space Station (ISS). However, it is flying without any occupants, leaving behind two test pilots who will remain on the station for another five or six months. The undocking from the ISS took place on Friday evening, and the capsule will spend about six hours in free-flight as it descends towards Earth. The capsule will land in New Mexico, marking the first ground landing for a US-made capsule. This return trip is crucial for Boeing’s program, which has faced numerous setbacks and delays.
