Boeing Orbital Flight Test (Boe-OFT) är det första obemannade testet av rymdfarkosten CST-100 Starliner i omloppsbana runt jorden.
Farkosten sköts upp med en Atlas V-raket, från Cape Canaveral Air Force Station LC 41, den 20 december 2019.
Strax efter att farkosten separerat från raketen uppstod problem, en automatisk justering av farkostens omloppsbana uteblev och efter att den beordrats från marken och genomförts hade farkosten förbrukat så pass mycket av sitt bränsle att en dockning med rymdstation ISS, var utesluten.[2]
Under tiden farkosten befann sig i omloppsbana runt jorden upptäckte man ett fel i den sekvens som skulle separera servicemodulen från kapseln strax före återinträdet i jordens atmosfär. Om felet inte åtgärdats, så hade servicemodulen kunnat kollidera med kapseln efter att de båda separerat.
Den 22 december 2019 landade farkosten på White Sands Space Harbor.
Efterspel
Den 6 april 2020 meddelade Boeing att man kommer göra ytterligare en obemannad testflygning av farkosten.[3]

Gidzenko and flight engineer Sergei K. Krikalev two tons of food, clothing, hardware and holiday gifts from their families. The photograph was taken with a 35mm camera and the film was later handed over to the STS-97 crew members

ISS021-E-017623 (30 Oct. 2009) --- Backdropped by a cloud-covered part of Earth, the unpiloted Japanese H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV), filled with trash and unneeded items, departs from the International Space Station. European Space Agency astronaut Frank De Winne, Expedition 21 commander; NASA astronaut Nicole Stott and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Robert Thirsk, both flight engineers, used the station's Canadarm2 robotic arm to grab the HTV cargo craft and unberth it from the Harmony node's nadir port. The HTV was successfully unberthed at 10:18 a.m. (CDT) on Oct. 30, 2009, and released from the station's Canadarm2 at 12:32 p.m.

Dragon carried more than 2 ½ tons of supplies and experiments to the station.
ISS026-E-037172 (24 Feb. 2011) --- Surrounded by the blackness of space, the European Space Agency's "Johannes Kepler" Automated Transfer Vehicle-2 (ATV-2) approaches the International Space Station. Docking of the two spacecraft occurred at 10:59 a.m. (EST) on Feb. 24, 2011.
A United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket with Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner spacecraft onboard is seen as it is rollout out of the Vertical Integration Facility to the launch pad at Space Launch Complex 41 ahead of the Orbital Flight Test mission, Wednesday, Dec. 18, 2019 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida. The Orbital Flight Test with be Starliner’s maiden mission to the International Space Station for NASA's Commercial Crew Program. The mission, currently targeted for a 6:26 a.m. EST launch on Dec. 20, will serve as an end-to-end test of the system's capabilities.
