A Soyuz craft with 2 Russians and 1 American docks at the International Space Station
MOSCOW (AP) — A Soyuz spacecraft carrying two Russians and an American has docked at the International Space Station. The capsule atop a towering rocket set off from a Russian launch facility in Kazakhstan on Wednesday and docked with the station after two orbits of the Earth. That’s a fast trip compared with some that have lasted for days. The crew already aboard the station are performing a lengthy series of system checks before those in the capsule can enter.
