NASA praises successful launch of ISS-bound crew

A NASA official praises the successful launch at the Kennedy Space Center of a crew, that lifted off for the International Space Station, aboard a Dragon Capsule affixed to a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.

 Ken Bowersox, Associate Administrator of NASA’s Space Operations Mission Directorate said  "It was great to see the Falcon 9 and Dragon lift off with an international crew from Russia, Japan, and America. That always gets me excited. But I know we made you wait a couple days to see that."

He added that “they wait another day for Crew-10 to make their way to the space station to join Crew-9. The two crews will hand over for a few days, and then Crew-9 will be brought back to Earth. Once they splash down, everyone will get to hear all their stories.”
