Boeing Starliner...



What did you just watch?  The announcement that the CST-100 has been officially named Starliner...Check out the caption to this vid...
On Sept. 4, 2015, Boeing's Crew Space Transportation (CST)-100 spacecraft, developed as part of NASA's Commercial Crew Program, has officially been named Starliner. The Starliner is scheduled to take its first crewed spaceflight by the end of 2017, effectively resuming U.S.-based flights to space.
So what exactly is the CST-100?  Image below...


What has me scratching my head?  Well the little fact that the Boeing Starliner leads to this image on my Google search...


I think they better get a handle on the naming conventions or at least bombard the airwaves with this news.  An old concept is getting press that the new "hotness" isn't!
