SpaceX Blasts US-Russian Crew Towards Space Station

A SpaceX rocket carrying three US astronauts and one Russian cosmonaut has blasted off from Florida bound for the International Space Station.

They have a six-month mission, and space is one of the few areas where the US and Russia continue to co-operate closely despite the war in Ukraine.


The three men and one woman are in a capsule used in space four times before by Elon Musk's SpaceX firm.
