#Starliner and United Launch Alliance (ULA)'s #AtlasV have rolled to the launch pad on Space Launch Complex-41. The stack stands 172 ft (52 m) tall. Teams rolled the stack on tracks at ~1 mph (1.6 kph) from the Vertical Integration Facility to the launch site. This is one of the final milestones before the Crew Flight Test launch on May 6 at 10:34 p.m. ET. Starliner will head to the International Space Station with NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams on board.

Remembering James Richmond, a dedicated advocate for education and space exploration. His partnership with Space Foundation opened doors for countless students and teachers, enriching lives and shaping futures — our heartfelt condolences to his family and the Charles County community.
At Space Foundation we come across some great people who make the universe an amazing place. One of those people was James Richmond, former Charles County, MD School Superintendent, Principal and Teacher. He partnered with us on a number of education programs always committed to opening opportunities for any teacher and student with big dreams of being the difference. He made a lifetime of difference and we extend our sympathies to his family, friends and Charles County community on his passing. He made our universe a better place. Ad Astra. #spacefoundation #charlescounty
