Washington, Nov 17: NASA astronauts Michael Hopkins, Victor Glover, Shannon Walker, and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Soichi Noguchi aboard the SpaceX Capsule Crew Dragon, named ‘Resilience’, arrived at the International Space Station. They joined Expedition 64 crew who flew to the station last month. The mission is the first time a privately owned and operated spacecraft certified by NASA to fly humans has made the trip. The May mission, when a pair of NASA astronauts spent two months on the station before coming home, was considered a test flight. The four-member crew is expected to be on board the station for about six months. The team would work on science experiments and maintenance.
