SpaceX Dragon crew welcomed in ceremony aboard the International Space Station
A SpaceX capsule delivered four astronauts to the International Space Station early on Sunday, March 16, in a NASA crew-swap mission that will allow a pair of astronauts, Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams, to return home after nine unplanned months on the orbiting lab.
They were welcomed by the station's seven-member crew, which includes Wilmore and Williams — veteran NASA astronauts and retired Navy test pilots who have remained on the station after problems with Boeing's Starliner capsule forced NASA to bring it back to Earth without them after a test flight last year.

01:21time for a couple of people.
01:23And let me tell you, that is such an amazing journey.
01:27You can hardly even put it into words, the ride up on the Falcon 9, orbiting the Earth

01:39As we've said before, you cannot be great without the greatness of others.

01:46the last few days, getting us up here safely.

03:03I'd like to just say again, thank you to SpaceX for the awesome ride up here.
03:07As a rookie, that was one of the coolest things I've ever done.
03:11And I can't wait to get to work up here.
03:14So excited for the four pilots and us that just got to get to space together.
03:18And now we're four astronauts together.
