SpaceX delivers four astronauts to the International Space Station just 15 hours after launch

The International Space Station has four new residents. SpaceX delivered a fresh crew to the orbiting outpost. It was a quick trip on Saturday for the U.S., Russian and Japanese astronauts, who pulled up less than 15 hours after their liftoff from Florida. The Russians hold the record for the fastest ferry flight to the space station, a lightning-fast three hours. The new arrivals will spend at least six months in orbit, swapping places with colleagues up there since March. SpaceX will bring those four back next week.
