SpaceX capsule arrival brings space station population to 11

The International Space Station’s population swelled to 11 today with the arrival of SpaceX’s third crew capsule in less than a year, CBC reports  All of the astronauts — representing the U.S., Russia, Japan and France — managed to squeeze into camera view for a congratulatory call from the leaders of their space agencies. A recycled SpaceX capsule carrying four astronauts arrived at the space station a day after launching from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center. The Dragon capsule docked autonomously with the orbiting outpost more than 420 kilometres above the Indian Ocean.
