Boeing's Starliner spacecraft that has been in development under a multibillion dollar NASA contract arrives at the International Space Station. The new Starliner capsule and its inaugural two-member NASA crew neared final approach to the ISS for docking, a key test in proving the vessel's flight-worthiness and sharpening Boeing's competition with Elon Musk's SpaceX. The spacecraft was proceeding to its planned rendezvous despite an earlier loss of some of its guidance thrusters due to a helium propulsion leak, which NASA and Boeing said should not compromise the mission.
