Docking is expected around 7:10 p.m. EDT (2310 GMT) on Friday (May 20).

Boeing’s Starliner capsule is scheduled to dock with the International Space Station (ISS) for the first time ever on Friday evening (May 20), and you can watch the milestone moment live.

Starliner lifted off atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket Thursday evening (May 19), kicking off a crucial uncrewed mission to the ISS called Orbital Flight Test 2 (OFT-2). The Starliner capsule is scheduled to arrive at the orbiting lab on Friday at around 7:10 p.m. EDT (2310). 

You can watch the action live here at Space.com, courtesy of NASA TV, or directly via the space agency. Coverage begins at 3:30 p.m. EDT (1930 GMT).
