SpaceX crew reaches International Space Station

A four-person crew reached the International Space Station (ISS) Friday after being launched aboard SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft in Florida about 25 hours earlier, according to NASA and SpaceX. Footage from NASA shows the new arrivals — astronauts from NASA, the UAE, and Roscosmos — being welcomed by the current ISS crew.

SpaceX said the crew would conduct “over 200 science experiments and technology demonstrations in areas such as life and physical sciences to advanced materials, technology development, in-space production applications, and even student-led research.”
