Chris Ferguson has been replaced by NASA astronaut Barry "Butch" Wilmore aboard the CST-100 Starliner Crewed Flight Test (CFT), which is targeted to lift off to the International Space Station in 2021. The change comes two years after Ferguson was assigned to fly on the mission with NASA astronauts Mike Fincke and Nicole Mann. "Next year is very important for my family. I have made several commitments, which I simply cannot risk missing," said Ferguson in a video statement on Wednesday (Oct. 7). "I'm not going anywhere, I'm just not going to space next year."[/i]</blockquote> <center><a href="http://www.collectspace.com/news/news-100720a-boeing-starliner-cft-ferguson-wilmore.html" target="AirLock"><img src="http://www.collectspace.com/images/news-100720a-lg.jpg" width="400" height="265" border="0"></a></center>[/B][/QUOTE]
