11 people on the station… I know this happens every 6 months but it’s still incredible to see it that populated.

Looks like a full house! Must be nice to see new people in that situation.

SpaceX is heavily involved in ISS operations, with regularly scheduled transport missions. It’s not the “rescue” some would like to paint it as, but it’s still significant. Today we have private spacecraft that are more reliable than the legacy NASA aerospace products. At this point it’s “musical chairs” up there and SpaceX simply has the capability. Without Spacex the ISS would be much worse off.

Why are there no posts about this at all? Isnt this like the most relevant thing about Space right now?
Is it too positive about an Elon-owned Company? Is that why?
I wonder which Crew-10 astronaut won the race to the ISS bathroom?
