Watch: Nasa’s SpaceX Crew-7 astronauts arrive at International Space Station

Nasa’s SpaceX Crew-7 astronauts arrived at International Space Station on Sunday 27 August.

The astronauts, representing four nations and space agencies across the globe are Jasmin Moghbeli, European Space Agency astronaut Andreas Mogensen, JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) astronaut Satoshi Furukawa, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Konstantin Borisov.

They are due to land at the International Space Starion on Sunday. Their mission is expected to last more than six months.

The spacecraft has spent more than 24 hours carefully maneuvering toward the space station, which orbits about 220 nautical miles (420 kilometers) above Earth’s surface. The crew is expected to dock at the space station around 8:39am ET Sunday.

The crew will ride aboard the SpaceX Crew Dragon Endurance capsule on the mission, dubbed Crew-7, which will be jointly overseen by NASA and SpaceX en route to the space station.
