The Starliner only landed. It didn't successfully achieve its mission. In fact, it 100% failed.
Again - it is not it first fucked up test flight. :P
The capsule landed successfully, but it was missing about 400 pounds of the most important cargo.
Those are a pair of fat astronauts! Although I guess their spacesuits were missing too so maybe it adds up to that.
