LOS ANGELES, April 30 (Xinhua) -- NASA and Boeing are set to launch a crewed flight test mission to the International Space Station (ISS) next Monday.

The mission will be the first crewed launch of Boeing's Starliner spacecraft as part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program.

The spacecraft is scheduled to launch aboard the United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket at 10:34 p.m. Eastern Time next Monday, May 6, from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida.

The flight test will carry NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams to ISS for about a week to test the Starliner spacecraft and its subsystems before NASA certifies the transportation system for rotational missions to the orbiting laboratory for the agency's Commercial Crew Program.

Starliner is scheduled to dock to the forward-facing port of the space station's Harmony module at 12:48 a.m. Eastern Time next Wednesday, May 8.
