NASA and Boeing $BA are discussing using Starliner for 10 or more future low-Earth orbit missions.
Starliner hasn’t flown since its 2024 test mission suffered thruster problems, forcing two NASA astronauts to return months later aboard SpaceX Crew Dragon.
The renewed talks come as NASA looks for another U.S. crew option while SpaceX stops building new Dragon spacecraft and shifts focus toward Starship.
NASA separately awarded SpaceX three additional Crew Dragon missions through 2030 on Friday.
