According to NASA's announcement, the Crew Dragon spacecraft 's flight (produced by SpaceX) will be implemented in June 2019 and use Falcon 9 missiles , while Starliner's flight (belonging to Boeing Group) will It was carried out two months later with Atlas V. The test flights (without crew) will be carried out before - with SpaceX in January 2019, and Boeing in March 2019.

This will be the first time the US "self-sufficient " takes its crew to the ISS research station, since the country's shuttle fleet has "retired" since 2011. Over the past 7 years, all NASA's flights to ISS were all done with the only means, which was Russia's Soyuz spacecraft at a very high cost - about $ 80 million per person.
Therefore, the new step shows the determination to implement the plan to bring the United States back to the direction of the universe under the direction of. NASA CEO Jim Bridenstine said "this is a huge task for the nation and we want Americans to know that we are back, that we will run the US-made spacecraft. American missiles and departure from American soil . "
NASA is expecting the success of these two missions when contracting with the Russian Federal Aeronautics Agency will expire in November 2019. Under the long-term plan, NASA will use SpaceX and Boeing to bring astronauts to the ISS station for regular tasks (about 6 months). With the successful launch of Boeing and SpaceX spacecraft, NASA will be able to maintain a team of 7 astronauts on the ISS.
