A crew of four has launched to the International Space Station aboard a SpaceX spacecraft. The crew consists of two Americans, one Canadian, and a Russian cosmonaut. They lifted off from Cape Canaveral in Florida on a Falcon 9 rocket. The crew will spend up to six months aboard the International Space Station. This launch marks another collaboration between SpaceX and space agencies from around the world to maintain a human presence in space. The International Space Station serves as a research laboratory and observatory, and this new crew will continue the work of their predecessors, conducting experiments and gathering data.
