The Boeing CST-100 Starliner successfully soared into space on an Atlas V N22 rocket on Friday, December 20. This is a precise scale model of the launch. Printing at 1:100 scale is recommended. To print this model, you'll need to make the following parts: * 1x atlas_core * 1x atlas_stand * 1x centaur * 1x launch_vehicle_adapter * 2x atlas_srb * 4x atlas_srb_pin * 1x starliner_cm_sm_with_cap (you can also print the in-space configuration by using starliner_cm_sm_no_cap) Boeing's CST-100 Starliner spacecraft is a collaboration between Boeing and NASA's Commercial Crew Program. It was designed to carry seven passengers, or a mix of crew and cargo, to low-Earth orbit. For NASA missions to the International Space Station, it will transport up to four NASA-sponsored crew members and critical research. The Starliner features an innovative structure that is weldless and reusable up to 10 times with a six-month turnaround time. It also includes wireless internet and tablet technology for crew interfaces. Atlas V uses a common core booster and can be equipped with up to five solid rocket boosters (SRBs), a Centaur upper stage, and one of several payload fairings sizes. The Centaur is the world's highest-performing upper stage, providing an industry-best thrust-to-weight ratio. Its pressure-stabilized tanks combined with the lightweight Aerojet Rocketdyne RL10C-1 engine make it capable of servicing any orbital need.
