NASA and SpaceX have launched a new crewed orbital mission to the International Space Station (ISS) from the US state of Florida.
The mission, called Crew 9, carried NASA astronauts Nick Hague and Alexander Gorbanov to the space station. This is NASA’s ninth mission with SpaceX.
SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket takes off in Florida to carry the crew aboard the Dragon spacecraft to the space station.
According to NASA, Crew-9 members will conduct more than 200 scientific investigations, including studies of blood clotting, the effects of humidity on plants grown in space and vision changes in astronauts.
