Iran Press/ America: According to Al Jazeera, the Crew-7 mission is commanded by American Jasmin Moghbeli and includes Andreas Mogensen of Denmark, Satoshi Furukawa of Japan, and Konstantin Borisov of Russia.
The Dragon spacecraft carried by a Falcon 9 rocket lifted off at 3:27 am (07:27 GMT) from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, in front of about 10,000 people gathered to watch the launch.
“We have liftoff!” NASA said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Cheers could be heard in the mission control room soon after the Dragon craft separated from the Falcon 9 rocket with the crew in orbit.
“We may have four crew members on board from four different nations … but we’re a united team with a common mission,” Moghbeli said after the separation.
