Third time’s a charm for Boeing as its first manned ship takes off to space.
Previous launch attempts had been called off due to system and machinery failures.
Two veteran NASA astronauts are riding aboard the Starliner capsule, on a journey to the International Space Station.
US correspondent Katherine Firkin told Mike Hosking that it's a much-needed win for Boeing.
She says the manufacturer had lots of bad press recently including a door blowing out of an Alaskan airlines plane.
