A SpaceX rocket launched from Florida on Thursday, October 1, carrying a new four-member crew headed to the International Space Station. The Crew-13 mission crew consists of two American astronauts, a Canadian astronaut, and a Russian cosmonaut. hnonline.sk ↗
The astronauts set off aboard the spacecraft on a mission during which they are to spend approximately six months on the station. Their task will be to relieve the four crew members who have been in orbit since February. International cooperation thus continues to be reflected in the composition of ISS crews. Tagesspiegel ↗
The mission is led by American astronaut Jessica Watkins, for whom this is her second trip to the space station. She has also become the first Black woman to command a crew during an orbital flight. Her involvement is among the most notable features of the current mission. The Guardian ↗
The launch took place from Florida, with the launch vehicle provided by SpaceX. Following a successful liftoff, the spacecraft will travel to the station and subsequently dock with its existing crew. Deutschlandfunk ↗
The Crew-13 mission is expected to last approximately half a year. During this period, the four astronauts will continue research and operational activities aboard the International Space Station. Further details of the mission's progress will depend on a successful docking with the station. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
