NASA images show Boeing's new unmanned spacecraft touching down safely in the dark after its descent slowed by 3 large parachutes, that took off from Cape Canaveral, Florida on Friday, returned to Earth on Sunday 6 days early. The Starliner capsule, after separating from its Atlas V launch rocket, its thrusters failed to activate as planned and prevented from reaching an orbit high enough to meet up with the ISS.
