NASA has decided to postpone the launch of Boeing's Starliner capsule that was scheduled for this Saturday, May 25. However, it seems that we will not have to wait much longer for this occasion.

As reported by the official website of the North American space agency, the first manned mission of the Boeing capsule is now scheduled for June 1 and, in case the takeoff does not happen, the days 2, 5 and 6 of June have been 'reserved' as alternative dates.

It is worth remembering that the Starliner is seen as an alternative to SpaceX's Crew Dragon to take astronauts to the International Space Station but, with successive delays, it is clear that the capsule still has much to prove.
