NASA has shifted its upcoming crew rotation missions to SpaceX's Crew Dragon instead of Boeing's Starliner, which is still awaiting certification due to performance issues.
NASA's Deputy Administrator Pam Melroy stated that 'It's under data review' concerning the Starliner, signaling potential need for additional test flights before certification.
Boeing's Starliner continues to face scrutiny after a failed first rollout, resulting in a lack of confidence from NASA regarding its readiness for crewed missions.
NASA confirmed that astronauts Wilmore and Williams will return home in February aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule following the Starliner's significant operational difficulties.
