Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft has returned to Earth without a crew, following its launch in June. The uncrewed landing occurred in the New Mexico desert, concluding a three-month test mission that had experienced numerous challenges. Ground crews commanded the spacecraft’s return, as astronauts scheduled to ride the Starliner remain in space. This marks another setback for Boeing's Starliner project, which has faced years of delays and technical issues. The mission was initially intended to be a significant milestone but has instead highlighted ongoing difficulties in the development of the Starliner vehicle.
