Boeing Co. and NASA have delayed the first crewed launch of Boeing’s Starliner space taxi yet again, as the two entities continue to review a helium leak plaguing the vehicle.
The launch, most recently set for as early as May 25, has now been put on hold and NASA “will share more details once we have a clearer path forward,” according to a statement late Tuesday in the US.
