The Crew Space Transportation (CST)-100 is designed to carry a crew of seven, can launch on Delta IV as shown here in this artist's depiction and will provide a commercial transportation service for NASA back and forth to the International Space Station. Boeing also plans to use the CST-100 spacecraft to support Bigelow Aerospace's Orbital Space Complex. In addition, Space Adventures will sell unused seats for flights to low Earth orbit.

Boeing's CST-100: America will continue the dream

Published on Sep 16, 2014

Boeing’s Crew Space Transportation (CST)-100 is being developed as part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, which aims to resume U.S.-based flights to space by 2017 . The CST-100 will transport up to seven passengers or a mix of crew and cargo to the International Space Station (ISS) and other low-Earth orbit destinations. Under the Commercial Crew Transportation (CCtCap) phase of the program, Boeing will build three CST-100s at the company’s Commercial Crew Processing Facility at Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The spacecraft will undergo a pad-abort test in 2016, an uncrewed flight in early 2017, leading up to the first crewed flight to the ISS in mid-2017.

During Starliner’s Service Module Hot Fire test, four launch abort engines produced a combined 160,000 pounds of thrust in the New Mexico desert.

This important milestone paves the way for the system’s next critical test, Pad Abort, slated for later this summer. This rigorous testing process is to ensure the safety of all of our crews.
