Starliner's OFT-2 mission autonomously docked to the ISS on 2022-05-21 despite losing 2 of 3 thrusters in one doghouse, and its first crewed flight (CFT) docked on 2024-06-06, but helium leaks and thruster failures prompted NASA to return the vehicle uncrewed and bring the crew home on Dragon; the vehicle is not yet certified or operational.
