Watch The First Boeing Starliner Launch with NASA Astronauts! #CFT1

NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams will fly on Boeing's Starliner spacecraft on ULA's Atlas V rocket from SLC-41 at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. The mission to the International Space Station will be the company’s first Starliner spacecraft mission with crew on board, the final milestone before operational flight for NASA's Commercial Crew Program.

1:05:16 The way the footage switched from wide view to engines view and then back to the rocket was flawless, people at Nasa are doing great job on this one.

16:40 That pointy end check was perfect timing. Thanks Tim, will catch you tomorrow

I'm British and been interested in NASA since I was young kid .The achievements of Nasa is in my opinion absolutely Fantastic in every Field of Science, From Maned Space Flight to sending probes to the Planets, It still blows my mind to get Colour Footage from the surface of Mars and listen to the wind .I only hope I will see a Return to Titon.

I love that you let us "listen in to the launch sequence" without commentary!
The NASASpaceflight team is also great, but they need to let us enjoy these moments more. ;)

Big Fan of yours!!

[TheNadzed]

A Huge fan since Apollo, I still get chills watching manned flights

[arjunbhattacherjee]

Every time a rocket launches with humans on board my eyes get a little moist just on the thought how far humans have come..wish u a safe trip

[Rekuzan]

This channel definitely has the best high-def coverage of launches, and the fact they stream it live!

[rudypieplenbosch]

Tomorrow we have an important launch, can't wait.

[RickL_was_here]

About time, I had literally given up on this whole project.

[jimclester]

I’ve been waiting for this one. So happy for the team! good luck with the rest of the mission.

[theboatgoat]

Jesus that thing is FAST!
Excellent coverage Tim, thanks mate!

[Spacey]

I love the hype the no go pol has. You can hear the excitement in their noises

[donofdeaths]

The amount of people I've seen hoping to see the Starliner fail, just because it's boeing, was disgusting. I hope every space venture is successful, as long as it's in the name of peace and science.

[jeffhetschel]

Always fun to watch an old school launch like we did back in the day. Almost ready for the moon

[AlbertBuckinghamEllison]

For all the sh*t that Boeing's been getting recently (and rightly so), the politics of this spacecraft and SpaceX whooping everybody in the space game, I'm glad to see Starliner get safely into orbit with it's crew. Massive amount of work from all the team from the Astronauts down to the people cleaning the floor in the assembly rooms. We need healthy competition globally to keep the mission beyond our planet a possibility.

[kevincarambot]

For some reason this is the first time I can appreciate the G-forces they are experiencing. Just the right amount of clouds to show the speed they are achieving.

[mountaindew]

Just imagine being chosen for the boeng crew under the assumption that you'll be the first astronaut to launch from the USA in decades only to have to sit back while spacex launches for 4 years with no issues.

[JohnCillis]

I missed the live launch, so glad to enjoy this video and knowing post-flight the Starliner docked. I have only seen one rocket launch while in a motorcoach on a choir tour, just leaving Santa Maria on a choir tour we saw it from Vandenburg in the 70's.

We were informed of the launch from a Colonel from Travis who was the father of one of my choir mates, who in '75 gave my 8th grade class from Napa a private tour of Travis, including time in the Tower, on board a C141, a C130 and a C5.

I visited Kennedy in '92 and saw a shuttle in the Vehicle Assembly building but even with seven Orlando trips never saw a launch there.

In Arizona we can see the SpaceX Starlink launches from Vandenburg, often mistaken for UFO launches. Our local media keeps us informed.

[MaxwellMoore-du]

Those Astronauts are so Brave .Everything involved going to Space will kill them .

[suffysdave]

The infinite nozzle was a perfect explanation!
