Boeing has managed to put it’s Starliner capsule into orbit. For a program that started in 2010, and was supposed to be operational in 2017… it’s just a little bit overdue. The first orbital test flight occurred in December 2019 and came home after only 11 hours (after *not* docking, as planned, with the ISS) because its onboard clock was off by 11 hours. Orbital Test Flight 2, which has just now attained orbit, was supposed to fly in October 2020. The schedule slipped, obviously.
