Four new crew members rocketed toward the International Space Station on Friday to replace the astronauts who returned to Earth early in NASA’s first medical evacuation.

Jessica Meir, Jack Hathaway, Sophie Adenot and Andrei Fedyaev will join three others who have kept the space station running the past month.
