NASA Commercial Crew astronaut Eric Boe listens as Jim Moss, site director for Aerojet Rocketdyne's West Palm Beach facility, discusses aspects of the RL10 engine as it stands in a vacuum chamber at Aerojet Rocketdyne's test stand in West Palm Beach, Florida. The engine will be one of two used for the Centaur upper stage during a United Launch Alliance Atlas V mission to launch Boeing's CST-100 Starliner on a flight test carrying a crew. The engine was test-fired as part of acceptance testing to confirm the engine is ready for flight.
