Williams, will join fellow Nasa astronaut Barry Butch Wilmore, on the Crew Flight Test (CFT) mission, the first crewed flight of the Starliner to the International Space Station (ISS).
Astronauts Sunita Williams and Barry Willmore will launch on early hours tomorrow, Indian time.
The duo will launch atop a United Launch Alliance, Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.
This mission is a crucial step in certifying the Starliner system for regular crew rotations to the orbiting laboratory. It will provide Nasa with a second option for transporting astronauts to the ISS alongside SpaceX’s Crew Dragon.
