Moment of lift-off for Boeing Starliner's first crewed mission

Boeing's Starliner successfully launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida on Wednesday in the spacecraft's first crewed mission.

The past two attempts to launch a crewed Starliner to the International Space Station (ISS) were aborted because of technical problems.

Onboard the mission are Nasa astronauts Barry “Butch” Wilmore and Sunita "Suni" Williams.
