 |  Soyuz rocket launches new US-Russian crew toward Space Station
 26 March 2014
A Russian Soyuz rocket launched an international trio of crewmembers to the
International Space Station sending them into space for a 5.5-month stint on the
orbiting laboratory. NASA and Roscosmos said shortly before the planned docking that
the arrival had been delayed after a 24-second engine burn that was necessary to
adjust the Soyuz spacecraft’s orbiting path "did not occur as planned." The crew
would have to wait until Thursday for the Soyuz TMA-12M to arrive and dock at the
space station.
